Have been very, very busy, but good. Glad to see you on this list too!

The Almon name does seem to have been used around Maine at that time, which
just makes me suspect even more that it was a Maine 'celebrity' of the time.
If I ever get an answer on that one, will be sure to let you know, as well!

I have an Aunt that was named after the nurse that helped my Grandmother
with the delivery! As my Aunt was child number 9 to survive, I had always
suspected the same!

I seem to recall there was another WILKINS you were seeking in the Lincoln,
Springfield, Lee area? George and family, was it?
