Hagey-Hage Family
Home Page
I welcome your comments and suggestions, as well as your submissions. Along with the Hagey e-mail List, I would like to make this your web page as well. If you would like to share any information you might have, such as marriage records, wills, biographies, cemetery information, pensions, and your lineages. The files that are easiest to work with are "rtf" (revised text form) and "txt" (text files) for text type information, and GEDCOM files for submitting your lineages. I have a new program that will convert the GEDCOM files directly to 'html' as well as index your lineage information. You may e-mail your information
to Beverly Williams-Gardner.
To join the Hagey List, place 'subscribe' (without the quotes) in the subject line of your message.

How in the world did they survive? How many times have we found ourselves staring off into space trying to visualize something we have just read? I don't know about you, but it has happened to me more than once.
Having done a great deal of traveling over the years, I have often times just stopped and looked over the hillside and tried so desparately to see the wagon train going through. Why did they pull up stakes and move to such unknown and undiscovered lands?
I think it can best be summed up in the words that were written by Beulah Hartness Blecha in her diary that she kept when her husband, her aging father, two year old son, six week old daughter and herself, left Kansas and moved to Florida in September of 1922. This is the last part of the last paragraph of that diary and I would like to share it with everyone that finds this page.
"Mr. Hawk turned in the lane. He said this was the farm we were going to get. We stopped out in front by a high board fence and waited until Frank and Papa came. As I looked at the huge house and the strange sights around it, I wondered what our future would be. We had at last reached the end of our long journey. In some ways the trip had been hard, but I had enjoyed it, and will always remember the good coffee, and the flat tires, and the many other things that happened on this trip, and I will also remember the watchful care of our Lord over us during the many days and nights, as we travelled in a strange land."
The hopes and dreams of a new and better
future. Isn't this the same reason so many of us move from one coast
to the other. We are all exploring a strange land when we move.
