Hey!!! How about getting back to the guys Parker in the wall!

What Parker in the wall? Somebody found a Parker?

Dean, my early forebears got run out of Massachusetts. We still have some old Isreal Putnum family documents and history, he was fairly well known in Mass, another military man in the family history.

Believe it or not, I attended kindergarten in the General Israel Putnam House on Putnam Lane at the top of Putnam Hill in Danvers, MA. Acres upon acres of fields, meadows and woods that, at this very moment, are all pincushioned with surveror's stakes - soon to be yet another McMansion plantation.

... sorry Dave... that's it for me.

Here in Redding,CT we have a very nice wooded park named Putnum Park. It was named for General Isreal Putnum and was the site of his winter encampment. There are still buildings for the officers quarters,a few cellar holes and the remains of many fire pit's for the enlisted troops. Danny and I spent many a summer afternoon there hiking back when he was small.

Anyway back to the "hole in the wall" Parker.....:rolleyes:
