Potter Cousins Connect!

I've just connect with a new Potter cousin; only a 9th cousin but who's counting?

Dale Potter Clark and I both descend from Samuel Potter; Dale comes from his son Samuel and I descend from his son David. But we're both direct Potter lines back to a common ancestor. The lineages go;

     Donna                                                             Dale
   
Francis Harold Potter  (1921-2009)                      Henry Johnson Potter  (1923-2003)
Henry Melville Potter  (1888-1952)                      Woodford Joseph Potter  (1896-1969)
Francis Matthew Potter  (1862-1894)                   Laurin Freemont Potter  (1981-1948)
Matthew J. Potter  (1838-1902)                           George Everett Potter  (1833-1918)
Matthew Potter  (1796-1875)                               James Potter  (1800-1875)
Robert Potter  (1766-1819)                                 Solomon Potter  (1749-1800)
James Potter  (1734-1815)                                   Samuel Potter  (1715-1759)
William Potter  (1715-1747)                                 Samuel Potter  (1690-1728)
David Potter  (1685-1715)                                   Samuel Potter  (1657-1714)
                                       Samuel Potter  (1656 - ?)
                                       Anthony Potter  (1627-1690)
                                       ???  Robert Potter                                  



Anybody else claim cousin-hood with us????

  1. Just came across this site. Thought you might be interested in my book "Warriors for the Working Day" (https://www.amazon.com/Warriors-Working-Day-Narrative-Letters/dp/1556134681?ie=UTF8&*Version*=1&*entries*=0). This concerns the history and letters of Stanley and Edgar Potter during the Civil War. These were sons of Joseph Potter, son of Daniel, son of David, son of Ephraim, son of Nathaniel, son of Samuel, son of Nathaniel, son of Nathaniel, son of George (died 1640)
