March, 2008 update!!! Enjoy the pix!!!
My database contains approx. 78,000+ names of our family! There are a majority of them included here. Included are love stories, war heroes, presidents and mysteries.
All documentation on my facts, appears in the 'notes for' sections after the person's name. Documentation is a slow process but more is being added on a daily basis. Documentation comes in several forms [i.e., census records, court records, newspaper articles, government land grant documents, and some from other researchers such as MAUD HORN'S "Atchley Family History", 2nd edition].
Documented or not, please use this only as a matter of reference and continue to do your own research! Researchers are not infallible and mistakes are common!
Keep checking back regularly as I will be constantly adding new information as well as some reports and photos of our ancestors!
ALL IN MY FAMILY: contains the surnames listed here & more!
ATCHLEY, BOONE [as in Daniel connected thru the Griswald/Griswold family], BREWSTER [as in Elder William who came over on the Mayflower!], CATES, CRAVENS, DENNISON, DUCK, FUNKHOUSER, GIBSON,GRISWOLD, HARRISON, HILLIARD, HOWELL, JENKINS, LATIMER [Col. Jonathan is mentioned in a letter dictated by General George Washington!], MAPLES, MARTIN, MARSHBANKS, MORRIS, MURPHY, NICHOLAS, OSBORN[E], PHILLIPS, RODGERS/ROGERS[3 different lines at this time!], SHIELDS, SPURLIN/SPERLING/SPURLING, THOMPSON, WASHINGTON [as in first u.s.a. president George!], and WITCHER [this line is my first app to the D.A.R.!].
IMPORTANT NOTE: Please use any and all information as a jumping off place or a hint for your own research! I'm positive that there are mistakes, omissions, additions and assumptions which others will correct as time goes by and I am eager to hear from any and all who have such corrections. However, I will only make those corrections if they are accompanyed by documentation or after I have been able to make verification myself.
Thank you.
