"Stone Wall Mythology" - Stone Building People?

For Episode 07 of my Ancient Stone Mysteries of New England series, I wanted to debunk some “Stone Wall Mythology” - the ideas about New England’s stone “walls” which are deeply ingrained in the region’s culture… but likely untrue. What I label “Yankee Lore”. In this short clip, I look for “Stone Mason” among the list of occupations in the Pioneers of Massachusetts, and look at the places the earliest settlers came from. Were they really “Stone Building People” from “Stone Building Country”?
