History





We went to Dedham, MA - where the Fairbanks house is located. It is thought to be the oldest surviving frame house in North America. I was thinking that these were relatives of Nana (Marion Fairbanks Yorgesen) but not sure now. Anyway, it was interesting to see the house.







Susan Roylance came to New York and she took us out to a cemetery in Harlem where some of our ancestors are buried - Henry Stogdill and Cornelia Stogdill. Interesting that they used to put their age on the headstones.
