And we're more distantly related through PGM ancestors, including Chases, Whittiers, Pillsburys, Kennys, and Stevenses. Like everyone else with a lot of 17th Century Massachusetts ancestry, we have a lot of connections.

SJ, sometimes in life one feels like they know where a saying has come from. Over 40 years ago, my husband and about six of his friends would yell “winner, winner, chicken dinner”  at the tables in Las Vegas whenever they won. I loved that being your comment!
