More Information About Pasco Since this portion of the web page is devoted to the immigrant, Pasco Foote, and his descendants, let's take a look at the information that's been published about him and about some of his descendants who were also named Pasco Foote.
Manchester by the Sea While tracing your ancestors, don't overlook the wealth of information to be found by visiting the towns where they lived and reading the histories of those towns. This article tracks the history of the fishing industry in New England.
Zachariah Foote and the Migration to Nova Scotia At some point, most of us have read about the historic events that led to the migration of scores of New England colonists to Nova Scotia in the 18th century. For those of us with an ancestor who took part in that migration, the story is especially fascinating.
Sherburn Wesley Burnham, - Double Star Descendant of Pasco Foote Descendants of Pasco Foote can proudly claim the nineteeth century astronomer, Sherburne Wesley Burnham, as kin. The story of this self-made man, who was an important contributor to the study of double stars, is an interesting one. Sherburne Wesley Burnham was born December 12, 1838 in Thetford, Vermont, the son of Marinda Foote and Roswell Burnham
Photos from the 1800s If you read the article about the astronomer, Sherburne Wesley Foote above, you may remember that his other hobby was photography
