The senior H. H. Rogers was descended from three Mayflower passengers. I've been to Fairhaven several times; the public buildings that senior gave to the town are truly magnificent.

Kudos for not using an artificially-generated robot voice for the narrative. I was impressed by how much information this channel creator was able to imbed in the eight minutes. Excellent content and presentation. Cheers.

I’ve enjoyed your videos for awhile. It’s nice to see the face of the voice.

I'm always impressed with men then and today that actually make and produce products. It is interesting that the first generations will sacrifice, but inheriting generations spend the rewards of their elder's work. I like the simple elegance of Blackpoint (expect the Roman statues). Good report, Ken.

Ken, you continue to impress with the refinement of your posts; distilling all the most salient information from what I can only imagine is a great deal of research. So well done! Great broadcast voice, too: very soothing. Thank you.

That is one sprawling property.

Another great video Ken, thank you so much. Do you have any videos of Detroit, Mi? When I was a kid, it was such a beautiful city. It is making a comeback, but unfortunately lost a lot of personality in my opinion.

One can tell that that is a turn-of-the-century building. It has numerous wide porches for coolness during the day, as well as large sleeping-porches on the second floor. Americans in that period were fanatical about getting into fresh air.
