This site contains a large amount of notes, commentary, and photographs.  The purpose of this site is to honor our ancestors and to provide information to their living descendants.  I am indebted to many cousins and other researchers for their contributions!  

I welcome comments and relevant information you would like to contribute for inclusion here.  Remember that I typically only publish 4 generations from the oldest known ancestor.  You may send me direct email with attached files if desired.  I use the latest versions of Personal Ancestral File (PAF) for all my genealogy data collection, which now is over 80,000 connected individuals.

Use the navigation "Genealogy" buttons above to explore our genealogical research into each family line.

MUSIC - "Dust in the Wind", by Kansas:

"I close my eyes only for a moment, then the moment's gone. All my dreams pass before my eyes, a curiosity.   Dust in the wind.  All they are is dust in the wind.

Same old song - Just a drop of water in an endless sea.  All we do crumbles to the ground, though we refuse to see.  Dust in the wind.  All we are is dust in the wind. 

Now, don't hang on.  Nothing lasts forever but the earth and sky.  It slips away.  And all your money won't another minute buy.  Dust in the wind.  All we are is dust in the wind.

All we are is dust in the wind.  Dust in the wind.  Everything is dust in the wind. Everything is dust in the wind. The wind."
