Are you OK?
Perfectly fine
@@darrenmclellan6712 It was an angry sea, but oh so beautiful! Glad you are fine! It looked like you jumped back.
I love that area
I’m named after Samuel Mayall who was my great x six grandpa. I go by alex though per my parents decision.
Hello Alex. You may find this interesting. portlandhousestories.com/2020/06/21/7-lafayette-street/
Darren McLellan thank you for documenting my family’s past. We have many of their possessions from this time such as his sword from the civil war and a painting of himself. My grandpa and great grandpa were both Samuel Mayall too. But great great great I don’t believe was. My uncle was Samuel Mayall but passed away too young so my parents chose to name me Samuel but with a true desire to call me Alex.
