Janet-
Sure, I'll happily share everything I have. But you should know that
despite Rita's comments, I'm no expert on anything, particularly Cavitts.
My interest in this clan is peripheral. One of their number was unwise
enough to marry into a clan in which I am interested, that's all.
Several years ago, my wife was able to track down a copy of Ellen Burnett
Cavitt's book, "Some Tracings ......" (as well as the author's son and
a
granddaughter). I made a few bootleg copies, one of which I sent to Rita
a couple of years ago. She put it out on Cavitt List.
I've had plenty of time to dissect the EBC book and compare some of its
elements with other sources, including the fruit of my own prior study of
one Cavitt line. It helps to understand that the book was compiled
rather than written. Clearly EBC was no genealogist. But she didn't
claim to be and she rendered a considerable service to those who are by
rescuing the often contradictory notes of two earlier family historians.
Specifically, what do you think I might help you with?
