I can imagine that the first colonial generations were extremely difficult. I have been trying to gather information on John Budd of Rye, Westchester Co., NY (Connecticut at the time.) Supposedly, he either married or was the son of Catherine Browne, daughter of either Hackiliah Browne of Rye, or Sir Anthony Browne, Viscount Montague. I am limited to what I find on the internet now, and it is a mess of contradictions. The line continues from John Budd through the Purdys, Strangs (to PEI) through the Prices (to Tabusintac or Priceville) the Robertsons. Since few bother to cite and transcribe documentation, proof and evaluation is very difficult.
One of the offices of your publisher of the Stymiest book is in this town, so I've ordered a copy, and look forward to examining it with great interest. While there have been various manuscripts (Urquharts, Robertsons, etc.) and web sites (a rather nice one on Charlotte Taylor), I sense that your work might be the first really serious one on Tabusintac families. I do not believe I am, myself, descended; but the Stymiests were close. For example, my grandfather's second wife's sister married a Stymiest. It will be nice to have something reliable for a change.
