About This Site

This site is a work in progress. I welcome comments on the posted topics, any missing information on ancestors/dates contained in the pages listed at the top left (especially in those spots where I have only a question mark), and any anecdotes you have to share to shed light on not just “vital statistics,” but also history, culture, personalities, quirks, and how people like me came to be the quirky personalities they are today.

If you are a relative visiting here for the first time, please let us know where you fit into this motley clan by adding a comment to the post at: Where Do You Fit in the Family Tree?

If you have family history information to share but are uncomfortable with commenting publicly, you can e-mail me.
