Thanks, I’ll ponder the later years. But my forefather built his second log cabin over a spring to survive Indian attacks in the 1760s. (Shawnee land). His neighbor and two sons were killed in an attack. I got a vid of the teardown of our structure in the early 1990’s, but the video guy was a descendant of the neighbors home that lost father, sons, wife and daughters. Find a grave had them listed.
But then Amazon had mention of an old history journal that had a four year old boy hiding and surviving. His descendants created the 1990’s video. I wonder if we raised him.
Your forefather’s cabin has no impact upon the thoughts of Jefferson which — especially in light of the fact that what Jefferson and his fellows were declaring independence from was the dominion over their faith by fallible, uninspired, and opinionated King makers across the pond — refute assertions of some “a narrow funnel of faith”.
