I  have worked on my family tree for about 25 to 30 years.  I can remember my grandma talking about the people and her life.  Once she was gone, I really wished I would have paid more attention to her stories. Thankfully most of the research I was able to do online,  but for the longest time I ended up with a big hole in the middle of my tree.  Finally I found the information I needed to fill the hole.  I wanted to share my research with everyone.  If anyone can add to my tree please post on this blog so that I can add it to my work.  I hope to one day make it back to Pennsylvania to do my own leg work.  Until then I will just do what i can online.

   Again if anyone has additional information or if  I am incorrect on some of mine please let me know.
 Please go to my pages to view the 7 generations.
   I hope you enjoy and take pride as  much as I do.  I want my grandchildren to know where they came from and the family of hard working, strong and independent people they have followed
