Subject: [GM-L] An elementary question !!
Date: Thu, 6 Nov 2003 17:30:55 -0800


hello list , I need an answer to an elementary question , I am too lazy to
get out of my chair and go to the Library , Besides it is Dark an Cold in
Seattle area now !! , Anyway , When was Massachusetts settled , Or when were
people first born There ? , Towit : in the town of Salisbury lived a
person named William Allen , Some people say he was born in Salisbury in
1613 , some in 1627 , Some even say he was born in Old England !!
I sort of think that Salisbury DID NOT exist at that time , But don`t
own a copy of the Source so can`t check ( At this time ) ( 5:19 pm ) , I
seem to recall seeing that the first ships arrived on our shores about 1620
!! , am I right ? , gothelp? , Phil
