Delete comment from: Boston 1775
Thanks for researching this story. I had found the pay voucher and can confirm that Foutz is definitely German descent, so doubted he was the "French cook". I have delayed researching this family for 40 years and am just beginning on this line. I found it interesting as many men in my family are great cooks and I had an uncle who served as cook in the army during WWII so the tradition seems to have been establised early. I am looking forward to exploring your website as I have other Massachuttes families that predate 1776 and am hoping to stumble on a jewel or two.
