Good to hear from a new cousin. Sorry I was so long answering.I have 2 questions. Where do you live? and How did you hear about our Leavitt reunion?

We have met for 5 years this Sept' We meet at our Heritage village of Leavitt's Head which is a tiny little village in Charlotte County , New Brun

swick Canada Our ancesters David and Elisha Leavitt,rowed into the shores of what is now Leavitt's Head. They were escaping from their ugly stepmother. David , My great great grandfather settled at Leavitt's Head while his brother Elisha settled in LaTete just a short distance from Leavitts. Head That's how our Leavitt family got started
