4/1/19 My 2019 Cousin Quest

This blog is intended to be a record of my search for my cousins and 2nd cousins during the months of April and May of 2019.

The cousins I seek are the descendants of my great grandparents on my father's side.

• One group are the great grandchildren of Andrew Garrish Webster and Lizzie Florence Briggs - the parents of my grandfather, David Locke Webster II. 
• The other group are the great grandchildren of Walter Woodman and Mary Emeline Weston, the parents of my grandmother, Anna Cutler Woodman.

Sophocles stopped along the Skykomish River.

On April 3, I headed east from Washington state to drive across the northern states, and meet my cousins along the way. I had purchased a little Scion, named Sophocles, for the drive, and planned to stop and see the sights along the way.

I have gathered the names and contact information for about 25 cousins that I hope to meet, and have contacted most, to let them know I am coming. The contact lists will be posted on this blog.

I will post updates of my journey on this blog. I also hope to publish photos and information about each of us, for those who are interested, as I am, in getting to know a little bit about each other.

My hope is that those of you who are following along will contribute to the record of this journey in search of my cousins.
