Sorry for the delay. I have been very busy with family activities lately. It is nearing the end of soccer season here, Cameron (our middle son) is having a birthday party sleepover, and fall is definetly upon us.
I believe our connection is through Thomas Rogers and Katherine de Courtenay. I will put what I have of a few generations of Katherine's ancestors down below.
I would love to have you point out any mistakes or common ancestors.
Hope to hear back soon. cheers for now,
Ron in quiet little North Yarmouth

          [S. Courtenay],

Hello. My name is Ron Graham. And I have been searching for some of my Courtenay ancestors for a little bit now.

I recently got a letter from the Courtenay Society and your name and e-mail were listed.

I was wondering if I might send over a report with what Courtenays I have, so you might take a look at them.

It would be wonderful if we found a common ancestors, but regardless I was hoping you might give it a quick check to see if it has any obvious mistakes or omissions.
would love to hear back, Ron    [The lines attached below were provided by Ron]
