I haven't been back up there since my Father died a couple years back. He was back in Easton at the time, where he grew up. My mother is still up there as well as my last remaining Uncle. He lives in Easton still but makes the trip out to Harrisons every chance he can get someone to drive, he'll buy! He dearly loves their Crab cakes too. Don't know if your familiar with the Easton people but he a retired professor out of SMU and returned there. Kenneth Carroll is his name. We Carrolls were famous (and perhaps should be Infamous) from that area.

Make ya wanna slap yo momma!

I'll go over and pick him up 4 times a week.

Oh yeah....had that tomato dish thing. Get that EVERY time.

And sure.....have know of the Carrolls quite well. There's a whole slew of them there in Easton and the surrounding area. I think I bought my first W123 from a Carroll.

I think you should!

He lives on Brooklets Ave in Easton. He might be in Europe right now though. Tends to spend every Summer over there at the Penn Club. But I'll give you the heads up when he returns. You might just enjoy meeting the old Coot. He can be quite entertaining. His field of study is Religious History. He is also one of the few practicing Quakers (the oldest Meeting house in the US is located there in Easton you probably know) and writes and speaks about the history of them and related offshoot groups. He is prone to off color humor as well. Has some interesting stories to tell.

Hmmmmm....maybe thats where it originated! My whole family says worter and their descendents came form NC.
