Nutfield Genealogy
http://nutfieldgenealogy.blogspot.com/
Nutfield is now the towns of Londonderry and Derry, New Hampshire, founded in 1722 by the Scots-Irish Ulster Presbyterians. My own family tree is actually not Scots-Irish, nor from Nutfield, but I'll be blogging about both, and sometimes there are some surprising connections!
