Individual Notes
• August 24, 1913
My dear Sir,
I am indebted for much of the information in the enclosed sheet to Mr. William H. Gorham [Person ID 1509] of Seattle, who was addressed in connection with our search for Mayflower descendants now living on the Pacific Coast. Your grandfather often attended our meetings in San Francisco but I never troubled him to make out a record of his family. I hope I shall not trespass too much upon your good nature in asking you to complete the blank at generations 8, 9, 10 after which you can return it. The earlier generations I can get in New York (................) Prof. Gayley very much (......) member on the faculty of the Leland Stanford Jr. University, and you may consider this a candid invitation to enter the Society, if so minded. The expense would be $5 and no dues until the next year. Extra blank is enclosed, if you care to retain a copy.
Yours sincerely,
Herbert Folger
