Cough cough. Arbella? 1630.
According to some, I cannot call myself a native of the Cape because I was born in Boston.
C.C.H. killed people with Strep. No lie.
Just because there is batter in the oven doesn`t make `um muffins. Told by a "native" of the Cape. Too funny!

My mother (and I-just born) shared the same room after Ted William's wife when she had his son. He made the CITGO sign famous- it's mine!!!!
Unless your ancesters were either Eldridge or Nickerson, I'm not sure the family name counts that much down there!

Penny Nickerson was my den mother. Nick was my baseball coach.
I heard there were 3,000 people at Bill Jones` funeral. Bill taught me how to hot patch inner tubes for my bike. Half the phone book with those two names.
Ted Williams? I`m talking 1630, not 1930!
Here is the manifest from the Arbella c. 1630.

Mom`s side. Page and Lawson. Lawsons were New Bedford Whalers. You see, the ocean IS my blood.
Papa`s side. Nichols {misspelled} , and Saltonstall. Still a few of those folks on the Cape no?
Don`t make me break out the Starks of Live Free Or Die fame!
It was Breed`s Hill, NOT Bunker Hill!
1930, how quaint. Oh look, there goes the Easter Bunny.
The Citgo sign is MINE,MINE,MINE!!!
