🌬 NorthWindI come from a long line of #Scottish Sea Captains. My cousin found some old negatives & had them developed - found a few treasures. This is my Grandpa in San Francisco, he was born at sea during a storm, my G Grandfather was the Captain & delivered him. His place of birth gives latitude & longitude in the Pacific Ocean (& of course his 🌞sign is ♋️) He was the best grandpa. I love & miss him so much.
@NorthWind I’ve met some new #Mastodon friends recently and one of them is @HeatherRojo. We both are interested in #genealogy & have #Scottish #NovaScotia roots. I’m re-tooting this Heather because I thought you may find it interesting. Some of my Nova Scotia ancestors are #Grant #Wyman #Warne #Perry & #Balcom
Heather Wilkinson Rojo@NorthWind That's cool! Thanks! Do you ever attend the Wyman Reunion at the Francis Wyman homestead in Burlington, Massachusetts? I haven't gone in the last five years, but hope to go this fall!
@HeatherRojo I have not - didn’t know it was a thing until now, thank you! Coincidentally (or maybe not ) I’ll happen to be visiting Massachusetts this fall. Wow. Who knows where this will lead - exciting. … Did you know some of the Wyman’s were #SeaCaptains too? Thanks again. ☺️
