Sheldon Leavitt's Travel Journal

Family members may be interested in my transcription of an 1840 journal by my great-great-grandfather Sheldon Leavitt of his grand tour of Europe.  Some say that Leavitt was a dead ringer for my uncle Jim.

The line of descent works like this:
Sheldon Leavitt m. Josephine Wells
    Mary Leavitt m. Henry Ashton Crosby
          Josephine May Ashton Crosby m. Allan Forbes
                 Henry Ashton Crosby Forbes m. Grace Williams Pierce
                        me
