It reminded me of some information that I found out some years ago while doing genealogical research. One of my ancestors attended Harvard - Class of 1723. Harvard's archives reported that my 6xGrandfather, William Bosson was fined for not paying his beer tab. I also found out that in Roxbury, MA in May of 1722 that William was involved in a 'turkey stealing episode', as well as other socially embarrassing involvements. Hmm. I'm wondering what other skeletons I will find hanging on my family tree. I found this blog posting very interesting and it makes me curious to check out the Equity Court Records.
