My wife and I are traveling to the east coast this summer, and I'll be in Massachusetts for the first time ever. I have ancestry that dates back to the 1600s in Deerfield, and we plan to spend two days there. According to my late grandmother we have native ancestry from the area, but her memory was not good and she could not remember any details.<div><br></div><div>If anyone on the list is in that area and has any knowledge about its history, or even would simply like to meet and "talk tech" over lunch, please contact me off-list. We will arrive in Deerfield in mid-day on June 30, and leave mid-day on July 2 for Boston. We'll be there until July 7.</div><div><br></div><div>Mahalo nui,</div><div><br></div><div>Keola<br><div>
