Oh, I envy you! Thanks--I imagine there can't be too many Peregrine Bakers
either (in fact, I was initially interested in Cornelius because I thought
that a family that would name a child Cornelius would not balk at
Peregrine!--though tastes do change). Is the Cornelius on the Hampshire
Co. census yours? He's the right age and living with a Phebe (though she
seems too young for him).

Enjoy your trip!
