I don't know about the Mayflower Society, it's never been mentioned. It's a possibility because hubby's father's family is from New England. The DAR connection is through Nathan Hale's family. He was Jax 6X great uncle, his brother was her 6X great grandfather. But there are other family connections all intertwined up there.

The family cemetary in NH will always be a reason for me to want to go back, but the next time I would like to do it in July, as opposed to late October :)

My husband could quote names/dates, but I can't. I did a little research on my Mom's side of the family and found the wife of one of my distant cousins. She and I became on line friends and I remember thinking how odd it was that we have so many people related to us through common (great) grandparents but we don't know them and never will.

I do think it is interesting to know where you came from, and to visit an old family cemetary would be interesting. We went to one near us in Pennsylvania and it was surreal to see graves that had been there for 300 years.
