Salem Witch Trial Relationships to Gerrish Thurber

Gerrish Thurber (1907-2000) is the great grandson of 
Mary Bartlett Gerrish Thurber Wood and 
the great uncle of Edward Gerrish Mair.  
In studying kinships I often use my great uncle Gerrish 
as a reference point since he is the one who first 
sparked my interest in family history.
