One Family - Many Branches
When you go to the Family Information page you do
not have to register as a user. But if you do you will see information on living
people,
I hope that you will sign up, then you can see all the information and
please let me know if the information about you is wrong or wants adding to in
any way.
There will be a slight delay as I have to approve your application.
Why did I start?
The folloqwing was written by someone else and it will give you a pretty good
idea.
In each family there is one who seems called to find
the ancestors.
To put flesh on their bones and make them live again.
To tell the family story and to feel that somehow they
know and approve.
Genealogy is not a cold gathering of facts but,
instead, breathing life into those who have gone before.
We are the story tellers of the tribe.
All tribes have
one.
We have been called, as it were, by our genes.
Those who have gone before cry out to us: Tell our
story. So, we do.
In finding them, we somehow find ourselves.
It goes beyond just documenting facts. It goes to who
I am, and why I do the things I do.
