Goodreads asked R.L. Herron:

What mystery in your own life could be a plot for a book?

R.L. Herron I suppose it might be the events surrounding the emigration of my earliest known ancestor. On a ship named The Paule, John Heron emigrated from what is now Northern Ireland to the colony of Virginia in 1635. What was the reason? Was he part of the Puritan exodus pf that period? Was it simply 18-yr-old wanderlust? Would that be enough to drive a person on such a perilous voyage, or were there other circumstances, as yet unknown, for such a young man to leave his home and friends, never to return?
