Local historian publishes novel based on Lymans By Mark Dionne Town Times

Diana Ross McCain’s “Thy Children’s Children” is a multi-generational family novel with an epic historical sweep, but it is not entirely a work of imagination. McCain, of Durham, based the novel, her first, on the real history of five generations of the Lyman family.

McCain said she grew up fascinated with history and moving to Connecticut from Ohio, in 1977, exposed her directly to colonial and revolution-era times in America. “I had never been to

New England before … When I got here and there was a house on every corner from the 1700s, I was just in heaven,” McCain said. The sign on the edge of Lyman Orchards — “Since 1741” — particularly captured her attention. An author of non-fiction and a historian, McCain was commissioned in the ’90s by the Lyman family to write a brief history of the family, which first exposed her to the richness of the family’s history and gave her the idea of turning the story into a novel.

Blue Devils shrug off the heat CRHS teams take to fields By Mark Dionne Town Times

Fall sports teams at Coginchaug Regional High School, like boys and girls cross country, boys and girls soccer, and football, start practicing before the start of school.

Tree work on local streets and trails Wood chippers and cranes have returned to the streets of Durham recently and will soon begin work in Middlefield. Crews from Eversource, the power company, are removing branches and cutting trees in an effort to protect power lines.

This year that period has also coincided with temperatures in the upper 80s and high humidity, something the athletes and coaches say they are ready for during a hot Saturday afternoon practice.

She got permission from the Lyman family to use her research in a novel, but “Thy Children’s Children” is unauthorized.

By Mark Dionne Town Times

Most fall sports teams started the 2016-17 season on Thursday, Aug. 25, the first day they were allowed to by athletic regulations. Coaches view this period as valuable time and often squeeze in two-a-days, practicing in the morning and again in the late afternoon.

CRHS girls soccer co-captain Liv Preneta said of the heat, “It gets in your head but you have to push through it.”

McCain said of the decision to write fiction instead of a straight history, “If you’re going to do non-fiction in a way that draws you in, you have to have a lot of [documentary] material … but there’s wasn’t enough to write a non-fiction history that I thought would capture everything that was going on and fiction gets people into it.”

According to Mitch Gross with Eversource, most communities are on a four year cycle of tree work. Responsible for about 17,000 miles of overhead lines, Eversource tries to work on about 4,000 miles per year, doing a complete circuit after four years. See Work, A14

The history also gave her a narrative that helped her move the writing along. They Lyman family story is sprawling and intersects with key American movements and figures. Elihu Lyman fought in the Revolutionary War, William Lyman was involved in the Underground Railroad, and David Lyman made his success in the age of industry and railroads. In writing, McCain tried to stay true to the realities of history and did not want to

brush past things like the strictness of women’s roles and the direness of disease and medical troubles in earlier times. When Hope Lyman, a married woman, purchased her own land it was a significantly unusual act, McCain said. And William Lyman’s support of the Underground Railroad was not an easy position. A mob in Durham beat him for his abolitionist views. “It’s always going to be as true as I could make it to the time period,” McCain said. “To oppose slavery was dangerous, to support the Underground Railroad even more so.” The project took 20 years. “I was doing other things, like working a full time job and having children. It wasn’t like I was doing nothing else for 20 years,” McCain joked. McCain put the writing aside for stretches and even threw out chapters if they did not fit. She cites a chapter set in Georgia involving Caty Greene, widow of Revolutionary War General Nathanael Greene, and her suitors Eli Whitney, Elihu Lyman, and her eventual second husband, Phineas Miller of Middlefield, as a difficult

one to edit out. “I loved it … and I had to do research but ultimately it didn’t do anything for the book,” she said. McCain considered sending the Lymans over to see George Washington on his travels in 1775 raising the Continental Army, a path which McCain believes was actually through Wallingford and not Durham, but decided it did not fit. McCain does add that Washington definitely traveled through Durham in 1789. McCain has gotten positive feedback from friends and strangers about “Thy Children’s Children.” McCain particularly enjoyed a favorable review from Connecticut State Historian Walt Woodward and positive feedback from Lyman family members.

Also, on Friday, Sept. 9 at 1 p.m. at the Durham Public Library, McCain will talk about fiction as a portal to the past and have copies of her book for sale.

That rhythm will be best if it’s the similar to a pendulum swing, which can be achieved by placing the pointer finger and thumb about an inch down from the top of the putter grip.

Get feedback from the speed and line of the practice green before you go out to play a round of golf. The best short putters in the world (PGA Tour players) have astounding aim at address, a square putterface at impact and a precision speed that matches the line of the putt they chose. Very efficient strokes, not too long or too short, create a splendid rhythm and no wasted movement.

Once proper aim is achieved, hit some putts and see where the misses tend to be and then adjust the stroke from there. The putterface squareness at impact is four times as important as the putter strokes. Keeping these putting tips in mind will help you make more of those elusive putts.

“Prices are reasonable, significantly lower than most restaurants of this caliber and pretensions” -Record-Journal review

Putts that are inside of six feet will be a little more difficult, but remember that speed is still very critical. The more putts a golfer hits, the better they should be able to read the greens.

As far as aim, have someone stand behind you and let you know where the putterface is aiming. It will either be pointed closed, open or square. If it is closed or open, have your helper move the putterface until it is aiming at the middle of the hold.

SUMMER SPECIAL

“No Gimmicks, Just Value”

When practice strokes are made before a putt, look at the hole while stroking. This is similar to a pitcher throwing to a catcher in baseball or a basketball player shooting practice shots at the hoop. Look at the target on your practice strokes — not at the green — because looking at the green will make the golfer think mechanics and mechanics are not as important as feel in lag putting.

IT’S ALL GOOD

Good-byes as school starts By Diana Carr Special to Town Times

Summer is on the fast track out of here, and at the time of this writing, the first day of school is looming large. And I am flooded with memories of my boys’ entry into the academic world, way back when.

Maloney High School Athletic Director Bob McKee talks with project manager Judy Hanson as the new gym floor is being installed on Aug. 17 at Maloney in Meriden. McKee is trying to emphasize that the benefits of participating in multiple sports outweighs winning in one. | Justin Weekes, Special to the Record-Journal

Countering a trend in sports In sports, specialization is an increasing trend. That’s been the case for a long time now at the professional level. While at one time there were professional football players who played both offense and defense, those days are long gone. Today, there are players specialized for individual situations, individual plays. In baseball, pitching a complete game was once quite common. Today, it’s extremely rare; pitchers tend to specialize for sections of a game, as in mid-relievers and closers. And in baseball’s American League, there is the designated hitter, a specialization if there ever was one.

repetitive strain, and psychologically because of stress that contributes to burnout and dropping out of sports. There is the assumption that specializing is required in order to reach an elite level of play, but the vast majority of young people are never going to reach that level, and the risk of injury and psychological stress is the greater concern.

Bob McKee, the new athletic director at Meriden’s Maloney High School, is no stranger to success at a young age. He was on the Southington High School 1994 state championship baseball team. That’s an experienced position from The trend is also evident in youth sports, with young ath- which to deliver an important message, which is that letes specializing at increasyoung athletes are better ingly younger ages in one served by exploring a variety sport and excluding others. There is some indication that of options. He would like to see more three-sport athletes this might not be healthy, at Maloney. both physically because of

There is a lot of room for improvement. Just 2 percent of male athletes at the high school played three sports, and just 3 percent of female athletes, last year. About three-quarters of the school’s athletes played just one sport. McKee is trying to emphasize that the benefits of participating outweigh winning. While not an easy message to deliver, it’s an important one. “Everyone likes to win, but the big picture is that lots of life’s lessons come from being a part of something, like dealing with adversity and how to be competitive,” he told the Record-Journal recently. We agree. By urging student athletes to broaden their experience and learning, McKee is pursuing a fundamental goal of education. — Originally published in the Meriden Record-Journal.

I had stayed home with them during their tadpole years, and the longest we were ever apart was when their father watched them while I went grocery shopping. (It was my get-away. My then-husband could never understand why it took me four hours to shop.) So when my older son was drawing close to his first day of kindergarten, I had misgivings, both for him and me. I tried to prepare him as best I could, so that it would not be a total shock. We were living in Meriden at the time, and during the summer I would take him to Pulaski Elementary School, to get him somewhat acquainted with the place he would call home for two and a half hours a day. (Back then kindergarten was only half a day.) I tried to sound cheerful, explaining See Carr, A9

Letter to the Editor Lights needed To the editor: As a resident of Durham and future Coginchaug High School tennis player, I would like to ask the Town of Durham to please consider installing lights for the Coginchaug High School tennis courts. I enjoy practicing with my mom on a regular basis, but it is frustrating because we only have a limited amount of daylight and once it becomes dark, we have to leave. It would benefit me and many others if lights could be installed. I have seen other towns’ courts, such as those at the Northford Park on Middletown Avenue, where the lights are set on a timer. This seems like a smart option because it may be cost effective and energy efficient, as well. I thank you for your consideration. Piper Remillard, age 10 Durham

about all the fun he would have and how wonderful it would all be, et cetera. But I could tell none of this was sinking into his little fiveyear-old head. Being apart from Mama just did not compute. And then THE BIG DAY came. And it was awful! We didn’t meet the criteria for a bus ride because we lived too close to the school. We had only one car, which my then-husband took to work. So that left Ryan, his younger brother, and me walking the 30 minutes to Pulasksi. I never thought 30 minutes could be so long, or so painful. That boy of mine clung to my leg like a barnacle to a ship, and begged, “Please don’t do this to me. Please don’t do this.” The whole way. Obviously by this time he was on to the fact that he was being dropped off at some mysterious place and I would not be there to comfort him. He cried. I cried. At Pulaski, the

teacher assured me that he would be fine within minutes of my departure. I tried to believe him. But those two and a half hours felt like two and a half years. My eyes were glued to the clock. I wanted my boy back. The good news is that the teacher was right – Ryan settled down after a few minutes. The next day, though, was a repeat performance of the tears and the begging. And the next day. And the next day. For about two weeks. Oddly enough, this is the lad who, while still in his teens, moved halfway around the world to Sweden. The beginning of school was an entirely different story for my younger son. He had seen Ryan leave every morning and return unscathed every afternoon, so it all seemed like a safe enough venture to him. You did come back. I will never forget the night before his first day of kindergarten. He strapped on his new backpack, and marched all around the house singing, “I’m a school boy. I’m a

school boy.” (Later years saw him not quite so enthused.) We were in Durham by then, and when I dropped him off at Brewster he ran over to the steps and sat down next to a little boy who would become his best friend. I waved and called out to him as he turned to go in, but he never even glanced back. I should have felt relieved that he was taking it all so well, but I felt hurt. Which was petty of me, I know. I cried all the way home. For that, and for the realization that some kind of a turning point had been reached. My offspring were wriggling out of their cocoons-just a bit-and a lot was out of my hands now. I prayed that they would be met with kindness, in all ways and at all times.

extra time with them. We’d laugh and joke and talk. It was a magical time. The day came, though, when Ryan, who enjoyed these bonding times as much as I did (I think), instructed me to go into the house as soon as the bus made an appearance. He was of the age when it was an embarrassment to have his mother waiting with him. And now Ryan’s son has started kindergarten. I think Hayden will have an easier

time of it than his father, because he’s been in daycare since he was a year and a half old, so being away from Mama is no new thing. I don’t think there were any tears. I’m glad.

I didn’t let go easily. When they were little I would wait out for the bus with them because our house is on a very busy road. But long after they were old enough to wait by themselves, I was still there. I just loved spending that

Obituaries Joyanne (Walmsley) Hammond DURHAM — Joyanne Carol (Walmsley) Hammond, 69, of Durham, beloved wife of Jeffrey Hammond for 40 years, passed away unexpectedly on Tuesday, Aug. 23, 2016 at her home. Joyanne was born in Middletown on Oct. 24, 1946, the daughter of the late John and Virginia (Maloney) Walmsley. She was an only child but grew up with a close relationship to her uncle of similar age, Jerry Maloney. Joyanne was educated first at MacMurray College

in Illinois and then at University of Connecticut, graduating in 1968. She earned her master’s degree in education and nearly completed a PhD program, was it not for the birth of her twin sons in 1979. She was a constant educator, both as a teacher in the Middletown school system for 36 years and with her children and grandchildren. Countless students have remarked about ‘Ms. Hammond teaching them to read in high school after all those years of school and not knowing how.’ Joyanne was unconditionally devoted to her family, always putting their needs ahead of her own. She had an intense affection for her grandchildren, spending countless

hours patiently reading and playing make-believe games. Joyanne had lifelong love of animals, often traveling great distances to provide them with the best care possible. She enjoyed reading, writing and spending summers with family by the shore at Hammonasset. Along with her loving husband, Jeffrey, she is survived by her two sons, John and James; two daughtersin-law, Gemma Sala and Pamela Hammond; three grandchildren, Ava, Fletcher

and Lucas; her beloved uncle and aunt, Jerry and Rhonda Maloney; and Bella, their boxer, rescue dog. Funeral services and Celebration of her life will be held Saturday, Sept. 3, at 10 a.m. at the Church of the Holy Trinity, 381 Main St, Middletown. Interment will follow at Pine Grove Cemetery in Middletown. Relatives and friends may greet the family on Friday, Sept. 2, from 4 to 7 p.m. at Doolittle Funeral Home, 14 Old Church St., Middletown.

The 25th annual Oktoberfest is scheduled for Saturday, Sept. 24 and Sunday, Sept. 25, 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., at Quassy Amusement Park, 2132 Middlebury Road, Middlebury, rain or shine.

This year’s work involves 33 miles of power lines in Durham and 10 miles in Middlefield and is expected to continue through the end of 2016.

The event features live music by Joe Stanky & The Cadets on Saturday and John Steven’s Doubleshot on Sunday. Traditional festival food, rides and attractions in the park will be available for a fee.

Work will begin in Middlefield in a couple of weeks, according to Gross.

According to Durham First Selectman Laura Francis, Eversource gives the town notice before the work begins. Francis also credits the company for its cooperation with the local tree warden and their response to concerns. The tree and branch removal effort began in earnest after the October 2011 Nor’easter that toppled trees and left over 800,000 residences in

Some criticized the more aggressive approach to tree and branch removal, in 2011, saying this protected the power lines above aesthetics and tree health.

According to the tree trimming page of Eversource’s website, “Eversource’s Vegetation Management program is a thoughtful plan that balances the needs of our customers and communities. Our goal is to ensure safe, reliable electric service with minimal service interruptions while ensuring the proper growth of trees around power lines.” Francis said that she has not had complaints about the scope of the tree removal this summer. The tree work is happening on both state and townowned roads.

Wood from Field Forest will be sold as lumber and fuel, but Suhr says that the revenue is not the point of the work. Field Forest, 152 acres in Durham, was donated to the CFPA in the will of Durham resident Howard B. Field, Jr. CFPA officially took control of the space in 2001.

Some trees will be taken down to open up both the undergrowth and the tree tops. According to Suhr, when more light reaches the forest floor, the resulting growth of plants like spice bush helps the wildlife.

“We complain about the heat, but during the season we’ll complain about the cold,” added co-captain Amanda Paul.

Cap also tells his players to hydrate and eat healthy at home. “The heat is normal, we’ve dealt with it and the school does a great job informing them” of hydration and eating well, Cap said.

Germond said the heat has not given them much trouble. “Most of the kids play in a summer league so they’re used to the heat.”

Girls soccer Head Coach Megan Kavanaugh plans for the hot days. “We try to play more [scrimmages] in the afternoon so it’s more fun.”

Still, the players notice the temperatures, checking their phones and car thermometers for updates. “If you told me it was 100 degrees, I’d believe it,” said soccer player Lauren Fairchild during a break in the scrimmage.

50742-01

Assistant girls soccer Coach Kate Germond said that the coaches keep the players hydrated and also avoid practicing during the hottest times between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. That timing makes a big difference. When the boys and girls soccer teams started their first Saturday practices, the temperature was only in the upper 60s.
