Welcome To the McCrossen, Perkins,
Ullom, Vanderlip And Pelon Family Website




This Website is dedicated To my Mother,
Dorothy Louise Perkins
July 27, 1917 ~ January 5, 2001
In Loving Memory

These Pages contain information that I have gathered on my family, With a lot of help from my Mother and all of my new found "Cousin's" that I have met while doing research. The "Trunk" of my tree consists of, The William N. Perkins Family of Ada, Kent County, Michigan; The Peter John Pelon family of Grand Rapids, Kent County, Michigan; The David McCrossen family of Armada, Saint Clair County, Michigan; The James J. Pyron Family of Tyler, Texas; The Vanderlip Family of Michigan and Ireland And the Ullom Family of Iowa and South Dakota.

I believe that Genealogy should be shared with fellow researchers, And to have credit given where due.
{NOTE: Don't ask for data on the "Living" the filters are there to protect their privacy!}
I have many other family Names I am working on, And will list them here as my time allows. If I can help you in your research in any way, Or if you have anything to share with me, Please feel free to contact me.
I have a lot of project's I'd like to add to this page, One of them being a Military Section. I have several Ancestor's that were Revolutionary War Patriot's and many from other War's and Conflict's.
The Headstone Photograph Page will grow also as I have had fantastic luck in obtaining photo's of Headstones from volunteers (Mostly my Michigan roots for now)

Some of the new browser's will not display my site pages's as created and intended, Sorry to those of you it affects! I am working on it.
