    Greetings to all the Hines! One of our granddaughters somehow came across your Smith family postings. What a surprise! I see a couple of minor errors about my family (such as Aunt Jeanette marrying my father, Peter Groustra!) but found it very interesting. It would be fun for someone (please, not me!) to record how many descendents Grandma and Grandpa Smith have at present. My husband and I have a group of 38 with in-laws and grandchildren and great-grandchildren.Blessings to all,Elaine Groustra BoersHolland, MIajboers@sbcglobal.net

    Hi ElaineI just stumbled on your comment. Thanks so much for saying hello, and shining a light on my error. I will have to go back in and figure out where I went wrong! Do you know if there’s a list of all the Groustra (Smith) descendants? I would love to have it.Best,Annabel Hine (great granddaughter of Richard and Jennie (Smith) Hine.
