http://www.chadbourne.org/2006Reunion.htm goes to that part of the
CHADBOURNE-SPENCER-GOODWIN website which summarizes this year's annual CFA
meeting which has been scheduled in connection with the 20th Anniversary
Meeting of the Maine Genealogical Society (MGS) to which a link is provided
on the website first above.
While each organization invites new friends, the Saturday evening event
(which bridges the two) should be particularly interesting. "Joe"
Anderson, Editor of most of the fine publications of MGS, will describe his
research, published in "The American Genealogist" as he responded to a
challenge to find the wife of a fourth generation male who's an ancestor of
a large fraction of the Chadbourn(e) family in early Maine. Further,
George Langlais (descendant of an English boy kidnapped from southern Maine
by Native Americans, will describe the ongoing excavation of the house of
Humphrey Chadbourne, burned by such raiders in 1690. That excavation will
be illustrated in even greater detail on Sunday by Prof. Emerson "Tad"
Baker, who's supervised each year's team of excavators.
FEMALE LINES are followed extensively in the CFA publications, which likely
include all female descendants to the sixth generation (appearing in
Chadbourne Generations2, 3, 4), on-line at
www.chadbourne.org
<
http://www.chadbourne.org/> and in the original book and the more recent
CD and revised print editions. (THOMAS SPENCER married the daughter of the
Chadbourne immigrant. DANIELGOODWIN married their daughter, Margaret
Spencer, they being folks who lived mostly in that part of Kittery now So.
Berwick, Maine.
For that Saturday night program (with your meal off the menu at Verillo's
Restaurant), and the Sunday CFA meeting (contents described at first website
above), RESERVations should be made with CFA Program Chair, Arlene Verity
avcwdancer(a)comcast.net, ASAP so supply of tables, chairs and food will be
enough.
FALL Foliage makes this a choice weekend, but also requires early
reservations. For more details, please see the websites above. Thanks!
We look forward to seeing you! ~ Ted Chadbourne
