Many of you that have read my blog, (though not many) know that this is a blog about my genenalogy... and have read about my search for my Native American roots. I have found rather quickly in my research information about Fredric Webster son of Solomon & Mary (Wilson) Webster. I stated in the blog entry "...Some in Michigan are living..." -
"Calling me back "home," beckoning me is a little piece of land. Ironically it is
called Barkhamsted Lighthouse. I ponder the inhabitants of the Lighthouse
"Tribe" even thought what it's name would mean to those coming after them. To me
it is a beacon deep in my heart. A passion that was my mother's and my
grandmother's to stand where the Websters & Chagum's once stood."
It's all coming full circle.... Probably a year ago I connected with Coni Allen-Dubois, also descendant of the Barkhamsted Lighthouse Tribe. (I figured out that she is my 7th cousin, 1x's removed - LOL!) She has done extensive work & traveled far & wide to collect the "stories" of our family. Coni has asked me to join her blog & write updates on my Webster family line there. I am truly honored & totally excited to be joining an awesome sister to dig up all the stories we can collect on the Barkhamsted Lighthouse Tribe. :-) You can check her Blog out at Ever Widening Circle - I will be posting very soon :)
