Dewey David D'Albert Apr 8, 1898 - Jul 9, 1961 Lakeport, California, United States

Dewey David D'Albert was a kind, warm, hard-working man that was generous with his time and talents. He was close to his family, and happily spent time with them. Though Dewey had no children of his own, he was 'Grandpa Dewey' to the two granddaughters of his wife, Connie. He taught them French swear words, built them a log playhouse with matching log doghouse, and a little log doll house. They both adored their Grandpa Dewey, and loved staying the night at the log cabin in Santa Cruz with him and their grandmother, Connie.

My life-time love of geneology and old photos led to the concept of Ancientfaces back in 1999....through the site I have made contact with previously unknown cousins in Australia, Tasmania, England, Scotland and various states in the US, broadening and enriching my family stories, photos and family relationships. The names I am researching resided in and/or settled the following areas: South Wales; Scotland; Northern Ireland; Normandy; Germany, Belgium & the Netherlands; Virginia; West Virginia, Kentucky, Kansas, Idaho and Washington state; first wave of settlers in the Hudson River & Mohawk River Vallies; founding fathers of New Haven, Middlesex and New London Counties, CT, along with Suffolk, Norfolk & Middlesex Counties in MA; first wave of settlers to Quebec and Ontario, Canada. Also, I am a member of the Mayflower Society after tracing my maternal side to John Billington, a Mayflower passenger ( with his family) who settled in Plymouth , and signed, the Mayflower compact.
