A Family Tree




Monday, 23 July 2007
Today I continued to delve into the history of the Tibbetts family. I spent most of the day reconstructing part of their family tree based on research from a previous EE group. Their history is so convoluted that I feel like I am writing the plot to a soap opera. I am having a great time with my site. I am definitely working outside of my comfort zone with the historical analysis of the cemetery. My background is in biology and I have little knowledge about New England homesteads during this time period, so I am thrilled to have the opportunity to strengthen this weakness.

Katie, I am thrilled that you are working on the Tibbetts cemetery plots too! I can't wait to hear about the soap opera that existed historically too. I got a little glimpse into the information you were working with yesterday and it is fascinating. Do you think that their spirits roam the Tamposi still? It is something I thought about yesterday when I took a detour to see the site. I am very excited for you and honestly, a little spooked standing in the cemetery.
