Topic I’d love to explore - quite selfish and likely not of broad interest. My bride’s family lore ties her to Joshua Fry, first math professor at William and Mary, and co-surveyor of the Fry-Jefferson Map of Virginia. Other surveyor was Peter Jefferson,Tommy’s dad. That part is established, the possible myth: Fry was leading an army unit in Ohio during the French and Indian War when he suffered a fatal fall from his horse. His second-in-command then took over, leading a unit for the first time. Name of this gent? George Washington. (Bride is also related to Thomas Walker family, who paused the British assault on Charlottesville while Jack Jouette (“the Southern Revere”) raced to alert Governor Thomas Jefferson to flee Charlottesville; but that’s another story.) Good morning!
I wonder what happened to her and what she thinks of this letter now.
The letters from kids to Kennedy are the best.
