 Meeting Family Members . . .
 
finding 'lost' cousins, making a connection, getting to know each other and becoming friends . . . what a great way to overcome some of the impersonal aspects of 21st century life, and to find again the kinship bonds which kept our ancestors close. 
 
I think they're proud of us, for finding each other.

Kelly Marshall and Sam Robinson, Robinson Farm, February 2005
~
On this site in about 1797, Dr. Simeon Hovey laid claim to land which would remain in our family for 208 years.  Sam Robinson of New Hampshire, heir of the Samuel Marshall Robinson home and much of the Hovey-Robinson land, had invited me to go through the house with him prior to the sale of the property. 
 
Here, Aunt Hovey had made a home for her Rohrer and Marshall nephews and nieces, upon the death of her sister--our common ancestor--Catharina Truby Rohrer Marshall.  Our two branches of the family traveled from this site, and back again to it, in a fluid movement which spanned two centuries. 
 
As Sam and I met on that cold, bright February day, I'm not sure either of us then caught the import of the occasion: a Robinson and a Marshall, standing here together and representing all the Marshall and Robinson
generations who had lived in and near this place, before.
