Kitty ... thanks for the offer to wait ... my schedule is so erratic so it wouldn't be fair to ask that ... I'll just have to try to catch you on the "weekends" ... Fri thru Monday. I'm on EST ... so I think I'm an hour ahead of you. It's 10:15pm and I'm just now getting on.

Ocean Born Mary - lived in Londonderry, New Hampshire - the Ocean Born Mary House was actually one of her sons' house and it was in Henniker, NH, where she lived in her last years.

She is "said" to haunt the house in Henniker, NH, though the stories told and the furnishings in the house were mostly fabricated by a Louis Roy of Wisconsin. Roy bought the house around 1917, filled it with furniture and sold admission to the house - fabricating ghost stories to "enhance" his sales.

Yep, Kitty you've got it! Henniker, NH is where the house is that Ocean Born Mary haunts. Believe it or not, she is actually one of my relatives. She married a James Wallace and Wallace was my grandmother's maiden name. Wonder if I'll ever get to haunt a house...
