Welcome to our family's genealogy website!
First, let me tell you how the pages work, for links to either my paternal or maternal lines click on the main header of one or the other ancestral line (found at the top of each page). First click on one or all of the five headers (some of the pages have drop down links - but you might miss something if you don't visit the the 'main' header links themselves! Once you've visited the main header pages, go on to the drop down pages. Those links will take you to an ancestral report or to a page of interest related to that ancestral line.
Now, before you start perusing the pages please keep in mind that the genealogy posted on this website is a work in progress! And as such, you might find errors or omissions! When finding a mistake or omission please remember that to error is human, but being told that there is a mistake or omission - in a kind, timely manor - is truly divine!!! So please email me with any additions or correction! I will do my best to make any updates needed as soon as is possible.
This website features both sides of my ancestral research, that means both my father's (paternal) and my mother's (maternal) ancestral linage are represented on this site! Some of you are here for my father's ancestral lines, others for my mother's. In both cases MY direct line ancestor's names are BOLDED and in CAPITAL letters. Since many of those visiting this website will share direct line ancestors with me, the bolding should helpful for you as well. However, if you'd like help with determining your own direct line ancestors contact me directly, if time permits, I will be glad to help! Some of your direct line ancestors are my side line ancestors - so, I may have more information on your direct line ancestors than is posted on this website.
Much, if not most, of the information posted on this website is documented, however some of it is speculative and is based on evidence that points in that ancestral direction. When that is the case, I have tried to explain why I came to my conclusions, in some cases I have dedicated a separate web page explaining my conclusions, in other instances I have added a 'notes' section that follows the speculative information. If you have a different theory or any information that you think might help, please let me know what your thoughts, and why you think what you think! Nothing is ever written in stone - even documented information can be proven wrong!
Please Note: Although needed for our family database, information on living relatives is not published on this website. That is, unless the webmaster is given specific permission (for example, announcing the birth of a baby, or special event like a marriage, or a special award, or if the information was posted in another publication, like an obituary).
