Musing on a random Saturday morning.
First off… this is my husband’s phone’s ID for me. Is this normal?
Then I got a email from my mother.
Part of her note referenced my Thanksiving column.
“Read your article about the 1620 Thanksgiving. You called Edward Doty Uncle. Edward Doty,
Edward Fuller, wife and son, Samuel were all your 14 times and 13 times Great GRANDPARENTS.
Samuel Fuller (Mayflower doctor) was Ed Fuller’s brother. So he was Uncle. Young Sam went tolive with him when his parents died. “
My reply:
“You are correct. I guess…I just was using a familiar familial term..
Nothing more was intended. We would love to have you visit… j”
Waffle House for breakfast.











Very funny. When did I get so old? Glad I’m getting old with you. Keep on writing!
Sorry about you getting old. I have chosen to abstain from that .
Jamie, are you really related to Edward Doty from the Mayflower? Me, too!
We’re family! It was through him that my family line moved from MA to NJ then to NC (Nancy Doty) in 1763 to GA in 1794. Too funny..we need to swap notes. He must have been a writer too. Or at least kept a diary. 🙂
