George Soule has finally made it across the "100 Descendants" finish line! This was courtesy of 4 Crapo (pronounced "CRAY-poe") descendants of neighbors to my North Dartmouth-Freetown ancestors, who are also descendants of the White family. Soule descendants have the extra challenge of no GSMD silver book, which means no "hits" on the NEHGS for Generation 5 descendants so database users may not realize they qualify for Mayflower Society membership. Other good news is that Soule Kindred in America (SKIA) has stepped up and offered to make a George Soule silver book finally happen. It will take years of research and teamwork to turn the pink "in progress" books into a silver book (more likely several silver books) because so many of the footnotes in the pink books say "best guess" or "guess" or are a blank space. I have signed up as a volunteer but have not heard anything yet about the work actually commencing, so cross your fingers and wish us luck.
