Individual:
The house in Norwell was known as "High Winds", and at the time that they bought it, the houses on Prospect Street were unnumbered. In the late 60's Prospect Street was numbered, and ours became 126.
Again in Merrimack the houses were unnumbered when they bought it. My father was an electronics engineer. Early in his career his specialty was in radar. Later he became involved in computers. His first job was with General Communications. He worked there for 4 years. Next he worked at LFE--the Labratory For Elec
tronics--until about 1967. In the spring of that year he was laid off just before we were to take a vacation to the Bahamas with long time friends of the family, the Bertelsens. I expected the vacation to be called off. (It was their third Bahamian vacation, and the first on which I was invited.) My father managed to get rehired within a week of getting his 30 day notice, and thus while we were on vacation he was actually being paid by two companies. He worked for Honeywell from 1967 through 1969.From: DICTIONARY OF AMERICAN NAVAL FIGHTING SHIPS, Vol. V (1970), pp. 287-289.

Embarrassingly, I don't know the maiden names of either my grandfather's first wife or third wife. The only information I have on is first wife is that at the time he was naturalized as a citizen he had a wife "Alfreda M. Davison" born in Pasadena
. His third wife remarried a man named Parsons, but I don't know either her maiden name or the name of her first husband.As you probably know, the filtered version of my data is available at WorldConnect. The registry format of John Davison's descendents is at:
http://worldconnect.genealogy.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=REG&db=brons&id=I569
It is also available at GenCircles. The entry for John Davison is at:
http://www.gencircles.com/users/brons/1/data/569
Do you have Supporting documents (birth, death, mariage cert., etc... that you could send me?
Somewhere in my files I have my grandfather's naturalization papers and his military discharge. Other than that and my immediate family's birth certificates I don't have formal documentation for the more recent generations.
I'm related to Leo Davison as
4th cousins 3xs removed with common ancester John Davison (file attached)
Thank you. I'll add it into my database and make a note that you are interested in new information as I find it. On that subject, I just updated my pages on both sites with Canadian Census data from 1881.
8th cousins 2xs removed or 7th cousins4xs removed with common ancester Tracey Thomas.
I don't recognize Tracey Thomas.
