Please note that the room will open for socializing and networking at 10, and the speaker will start around 10:30 am. For the May meeting, FGS member Stan Vincent will demonstrate the use of disparate record types to uncover the truth regarding a mysterious relative. He was able to prove that Joseph H. DAINTY who was born 10 July 1870 in Newark-on-Trent, Nottinghamshire, England is one and the same person as Joseph H. DAVIS who died on 26 August 1935 in Portland, Oregon. The process will touch briefly on this person’s father Henry DAINTY, his mother Harriet UNDY and their other six children as they made their way to Somerville, Massachusetts via Brooklyn, New York and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Stanford Bates Vincent, a descendant of Matthew Vincent of Kittery Point, Maine (circa 1720), is a retired businessman, charter member of the Independent Educational Consultants Association, and founding member of the New Black Eagle Jazz Band. He and his wife Carol Ann (Dainty) Vincents have made Falmouth their home since 1996.Contact: Tim Martin 630-740-0881 fgspresident@gmail.com falmouthpubliclibrary.assabetinteractive.com/calendar/falmouth-genealogical-society-monthly-meeting-18/
