If you are a member of the Isaac Cummings Family Association, you understand what we are talking about. If you are not a member, this is probably all new to you.
Tom Redlin and family, of the Witt Cummings Hillman Reunion, are members of the Isaac Cummings Family Association. We welcome each and every one of you to this glorious and courageous ride.
Isaac Cummings (1601-1677) came to North America about 1635 from Essex, England. He was very instrumental in the founding of our original colonies, especially the Massachusetts Bay Colony. The history of his family both in America and England were well recorded.
The reason we share this with you is because Phebe Louise Cummings Witt is a direct descendant of Isaac Cummings (1601-1677). He is her 7x Great Grandfather. That in turn makes every one of us a direct maternal descendant of Isaac Cummings (1601-1677).
The Isaac Cummings Family Association was founded in the fall of 1996 by a small group of his descendants in Minnesota, USA.
