My family tree includes names from the following family surnames: Crawford, Berhens, Esary (Essary), Kimball, Richardson, Craig, Taggert, and others.
My primary research is currently directed to finding the ancestors of James Daniel Esary who died in Seattle, WA. James Daniel Esary was one of four brothers who came west from TN or VA.
I have not worked my genealogy for some time but would share information with others.
The single "S" Esary name is a derivation of the double "S" Essary family name. The story is that a member of the single "S" family became upset with a member of the double "s" family and dropped one of the S's from the name.
