With a Little Help from My Family and Friends....

I thank my daughter, Laura Jenkins, cousins Diana Montfort-Roton Davis, Melanie Mueller, Paula Montfort, Paul Gibbs,  and Sandra Banta Roberts for contributing photos for this site.  Some photos are from my personal collection, as well.  Thanks to Teresa Hallam for the photo of the marker honoring Pieter Cesare Alberti that once stood in Battery Park, Manhattan Island, NYC.
