Last May 2013, Maureen MacDonald and I were lucky girls and got to spend a couple of days at “HistGen” or the New England Historical Genealogical Society’s library in Boston, Massachusetts. (We were double lucky because it was before the Boston Marathon bombing.)
Imagine our delight upon entering the main reading/research room to see this lovely painting of “our” Ruth Bishop on the wall! Ruth was a major benefactor to HistGen and well deserves the recognition. Next time you see “our” Ruth, be sure to mention her HistGen portrait.
Here is Maureen and my foots…… proving we were there! Have YOU been there? Did you find wonderful stuff? Maureen did find the answer to a brick wall on her Potter line. We were both so happy.
Donna, aka Mother Hen, until next peek.
