Hi Harriette,
I apologize for not getting back to the list with my intro sooner. I
didn't see any problem with the server, at least I did receive your first
message to the list.:) I actually did start to write an intro to the list
after your message came through, and other things got in the way.

Anyway, Hello to all of you! I am Bonnie Stevens Dannenberg. I grew up
in Vermont, and that's where my Hoisington line begins. My maternal great
Grandfather is LYMAN JUDSON CLOUGH. Born 6 April 1850 in Rochester,
Vermont. Married ELLEN LAPOINT on 11 December, 1887. (Second marriage).
And he died 7 July, 1922 in Walden, Vermont. His mother was CAIRA
HOISINGTON, born 3 March, 1815. She died on 25 July 1891. CAIRA was
married to JAMES MADISON CLOUGH.

I *believe* Caira's parents are SAYLES HOISINGTON and ABIGAIL DAVIS.

SAYLES born 1 September 1793 to ELIAS and MARY STOWELL HOISINGTON.

ABIGAIL, wife of SAYLES d. 25 July 1867 age 76 Little Hollow Cem. -
Rochester.

ELIAS m. MARY STOWELL 7 March 1782 Windsor

ELIAS d. 15 Jan 1810 Rev. Soldier - Old South Cem - Windsor

Going forward:

LYMAN CLOUGH and ELLEN LAPOINT had one daughter. EVA MAY CLOUGH. EVA m.
JOSEPH THEOPHILUS JOYAL. Thier oldest child, MARGARET ELIZABETH JOYAL, is
my mother.

At present I don't have documentation for anyone before CAIRA. However,
my mother is in the process of copying several hundred HOISINGTON pages,
that she retrieved from a CLOUGH cousin in R.I. The main reason I was
waiting to post to this list was to give myself some time to put all this
new information together and obtain the documentation for it. I'll post
again when I have time to sit down and go through it.:)

And I'd like to thank Harriette for putting the list together for us!
It's a great idea, and I hope we'll be able to help each other.
HOISINGTON was one of the lines I was "stuck" on for a long time. Thanks
to Harriette, my mother, and my Clough cousin, I'm not stuck any more.

Looking forward to reading lots more about HOISINGTONS! :)
