None of these Alvord men are in my direct line,but I think there's a strong family resemblance among them
and I imagine our shared forebears would have looked quite like them.
In my Alvord line, Rosmer Kerr's eighth great-grandfather is believed to have been:
- Thomas Alvord, thought to have married Joanna Hawkins 11 May 1618 at Ashill, County Somerset, England. They would have been my tenth great-grandparents.
- Alexander Alvord, thought to have been baptized 15 October 1627 at Bridport near Whitestaunton, England. He married Mary Voar on 29 October 1646 in Windsor, Connecticut. They were my ninth great-grandparents.
- Abigail Alvord, born 6 October 1647 at Windsor, Connecticut. She married Thomas Root on 3 July 1666. They were my eighth great-grandparents.

Hi T.K.,
I have a lot of Alvords. Would it be ok if I use the book link for my blog (in the future)? Thanks for the heads up.
Of course, cousin! You'll find this book at both Internet Archive and Google. Both are embeddable. The internet just keeps gettin' funner every day, huh? ;-)
Thanks a lot. I have Abigail's brother Thomas who m. Joanna Taylor. We didn't know this before, did we? of if so, I'm getting pretty forgetful, but at least I've got a cousin who will keep me informed.
No, I don't think we knew this before, Barbara, but I'm getting to the point now where it's getting hard to keep track of which geneabloggers I'm related to. I'm thinking about making a Cousins' Blogroll page with links to their blogs and a line or two about how we're related.
