Bear!
in reply to a message by Bear
How nice to see you! Have missed your posts and I thought of you when I scanned through my lists and picked these two combos to suggest. Yours ears must have been itching. ;)Don't know if you're interested, but I found some really interesting names in an 1871 publication detailing the descendants of my 10th gr grandfather who was an early settler in Massachusetts. You might like them; posted in 5 batches over the last couple of weeks. Currently posting from an 1888 publication, but not as unique as the other.

I know! I've been thinking about you, Bear. We all missed you here on the Ops board. Please tell us you're here to stay for a while. :)

You are so sweet! It's good to have the time to post again. Work has been hectic. And usually when I come here I can't stop with just one post. I will look out for your threads. Old names, especially ones in the family (or extended family?) are too cool.

Just took a look and the old ones are nearly off the page; will try to link here. In the 1871 family line there are lots of Puritan names, like Wealthy Jane, but also really obscure things like Eliphalet and Epaphroditus. Some are my direct ancestors or their siblings (and I noted those) most would be cousins of various degrees. Many are not included in the database here at BtN; if you know about them, I'd love to hear!1871 Batch 1: http://www.behindthename.com/bb/baby/4596127
