RE: Badass Women of History--Christine Otis Baker

in #life8 years ago

This is a pretty interesting story for me, as a genealogist. Christine is a many times great-aunt of my husband. Richard Otis's granddaughter Mary (daughter of his son, Stephen), was in the group from Dover who were rescued before they got to Canada. Her mother and brothers in Canada sent letters giving up their rights to Richard Otis's property, and Mary and her husband built their house on it, where it stood from 1695 to 1972. Mary is my husband's 9x great-grandmother.

Thanks, @natureofbeing. I'm enjoying writing about them. :)
