Carolee:
Years ago I brought a print of "Eel Spearing at Setauket" from the New York
State Historical Association in Cooperstown. I had it framed & it was on my
wall for quite a long time. It came down & is around someplace. Maybe it's
time to get Ted Green's relative back up on my wall.
EVERYTHING in genealogy connects with everything else !
