Not really anything fishy, it is just that I am getting dug in deaper and deaper into research projects. I was working on my Hotchkiss, Lee, Munn, Tilden project when I got to the part of the manuscript which is the end of the author’s Waters lineage. The text that followed was that he could not find any information on the ancestor other than his name as the father of Hezekiah Waters. So, I picked up the challenge, and created yet another research project titled, Who was Israel Waters. I have just started to do some looking and the status is pretty much as it was in the 1940s, not much. YET!

My other post about getting the book of the plat maps for Farmington Township where my GGG Grandfather, Horatio Lee, began to make an appearance in 1825 got a surpise. Also in Farmington Township, almost on the other side from Horatio’s land, was property assigned to Warham Lee. That is a name that has not shown up in any of my previous research. So, another spin-off project titled, Who was Warham Lee.

Then, of course, as I was researching the Hotchkiss … book, some of the sources I was pulling together to confirm information looked like they should also provide information on some of my other lines. And, of course, they did. I am not taking my “free” weekend to catch up my primary genealogy database from these newly found works. Today, was spent working on the Lane family that came to America in the 1630s. As I was working the information, I realized I was able to link one of the members to my Eames line that all I knew about the woman was that her married name was Lane. The two pieces of information connected an open end! Tomorrow I am going into the Lothrop family who arrived in the 1620s (just after the Mayflower voyages) and married into my Fuller ancestor.
