    Pine Barren Flora

    Can't say as I do know where that is Bob.I can think of dozens of spots right down here in Bevan where old roads that have been gated and disused for quite some time look like that.That appears to be high ground with pines and bluberry .Also a cedar swamp road on the south side of the Mullica...

    Garoutte Tavern in Historic Pleasant Mills, New Jersey

    I don't know but my theory as to how the Bacon surname developed was as a deterrent to Arab Ships in the Barbary Pirate days. No Muslim would mess with a ship that had Bacon at the helm!

    My first steelman I run into was an Ellen Steelman from the late 1700's early 1800's. They appear to be swedish with the name coming from Stiile and Mannson. I forget what those two words meant .It's in my records. I believe they were originally whalers who landed in Plymouth and settled in Lynn...
