| Notes |
- I had written to Carolyn Perkins (Mrs. Homer J. Perkins) in November,
1996 requesting information on Robert Sixbury.
54 pages (copies) of information were mailed back to me as a result.
These pages (which appeared to have been contained in a 3 ring binder -
you could see the 3 holes on the copies) consisted of three groups of
documents:
1. The first group of copies (4 pages) was a short handwritten chronology
of Robert Sixbury's life. No author's name appears anywhere on the
copies. No sources of informtion were cited.
2. The second group of copies (34 pages) consisted of hand written family
group sheets with Robert Sixbury's family as the starting page. The
subsequent group sheets outlined all of Robert sixbury's children and
their families. No sources were cited, and no author's name was mentioned
anywhere on any of the copies.
3. The third group of copies (19 pages) consisted of copies of old
newspaper articles. (19 articles/sources in all) No references were made
to publisher name (excepting where the author of the article mentions it
or where it is self evident), date, volume, page so it is difficult to
determine exactly what newspapers they came from.
This is the letter she sent back along with the package:
2 January 1997
Dear Mr. Kelly:
I am enclosing all we have on the Sixbury line. Some of it will answer
your questions.
As for the picture---Mrs. George Tassey is no longer listed in the
telephone directory. I would imagine that the picture was either passed
down in the family or destroyed. I did not find an obituary for her that
would name descendants.
Possibly she just moved moved away.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Homer J. Perkins.
