This wonderful book is about life and death, and about everyday people who made a difference in the world. It is the story and genealogy of two settlers to Mass Bay Colony in the 17th century, and follows those two immigrants’ families to today. Amazingly, those two friends, Tristram Coffin and William Moody, had grandchildren born into the 20th century who met, fell in love, raised a family and died never knowing their connection to these two early immigrants. This couple’s daughter went on a journey, to her roots, in order to share this family history with her descendents.
