    Our great grandfather Charles H Bristol born 1840 Middletown Ct. arrived 1868 in Victoria Australia following The American Civil War… Our family history research shows Benjamin Bristol born 1780 married Clarissa who we believe was of the Mahican Indian Tribe. Our American ancestry has given us some extremely interesting and proud history…

    Living in Australia and not being able to attend William Starna’s lecture, I have to satisfy myself by watching/listening/reading from afar…

      William is a spiteful creature making a name for himself. You can do better.
