Kings, Pilgrims, United States Presidents - you’d never guess that the ancestry of a humble couple from Norfolk, Massachusetts includes such notables. The Ernest and Sadie Dunton family can boast founding fathers, a famous bear tamer, war heroes, and even a ghost! Although Ernest and Sadie lived traditional lives for their time period, and accomplished nothing that would be considered remarkable or extraordinary, hidden in their respective family trees are gems worth investigating and keeping alive for us, their living descendants, as well as for future generations. This book tells the stories that our parents/grandparents/great-grandparents probably didn’t.
