Included on the site is direct information on Genealogy with a family tree of over 8000 individuals, searchable by surname, individual name, or browsable by family. I also have Family Documents (photographs, letters and a diary) and Stories about individuals and my family history research processes.
Also, I appreciate any follow-up emails with additional information regarding branches of the family tree, but please understand that my primary interest is in my direct line and that I am unable to update the tree for all branches. I apologize to those to whom I cannot respond.
