This professional geneologist is an inspiration to all family researchers. Pauline gave 40 years of her life to research and shared it all. A museum was established in her memory.

Pauline was born at home, her father was Captain Nathaniel Hawes Wixon, her mother was Marion Barstow Baker.

Pauline married Burton Frederick Robinson on July 3, 1936. Her son Burton N. Robinson was born from this union. The marriage ended 2 years later.

Pauline married the love of her life, "Dutch" Orion Phelps Derick on Sept. 3, 1939. Dutch adopted Burt as his own son and on Sept. 22, 1941 Ebert Orion Derick joined the family.

Dutch and Pauline helped build the Dennisport Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ Latter Day Saints.

Dutch built their home on the cape, a lovely cottage. I remember swimming in the waters behind the house, snorkeling with my cousins. Pauline was kind and generous, always.
