WELCOME!
Most Recently had to delete several trees and files due to the inability of Family Tree Maker to privatize my uploads any longer. Will continue to try and work this out.
*** As a result, if you are unable to find a tree related to a surname you found here and would like me to search my family files for you, just email me. I will be happy to do so!!
It has been so wonderful communicating with each new relative I hear from. Hope you have fun viewing the pictures, trees, and family files below.
At present, this site does not allow for pictures to be sorted or organized. My apologies. However, descriptions of each picture will hopefully help guide you. Enjoy! --Candice : )
