  • Notes 
    • "Story of the Old Homestead at Norfolk" by Laura S. Shepard [Chapman Notes]:

      The old homestead was a very comfortable, pretty gothic house near the Racquette River and near the village of Norfolk, St. Lawrence Co., New York. There was a pretty little stone Episcopal Church there and Aunt Charlotte (Charlotte Sara), father's sister, was a very devoted attendant there, doing much to help it along and at one time the clergyman lived with her, a Rev. Mr. Hanson. He used to have many of the clergy visit him, one in particular, who was a missionary in charge of the Indian settlements of TS. Regis, near there. He was a tall, dark, interesting man and my aunt became very fond of him and liked to have him come. She said she never saw any one with such courtly manners, seemingly inborn, for he had been brought up by the Indians and couldn't have acquired them from them. [She goes on to explain that this man was supposedly the lost Dauphin of France - the son of Marie Antoinette; after some "proof" was found of this story, she and many of the others were convinced of this.]
