Please scroll to the bottom of this page for some interesting web sites and my tree.

 

I became interested in genealogy in 1999,when my father,

Carl Vernon Allen,b.Scioto County,Portsmouth,Ohio,12/13/1927;

gave me some family bible information and I discovered that I could research it on the internet.

 My interest just grew as I obtained more information and more family names.

I had no idea where our families came from, really, I just thought we were always from Ohio.

 Although there was plenty of family name documentation, there was no place of origin documented,

except Scioto County, Portsmouth,Ohio for the Allen's and

Beach City,Ohio for the Justice family.

 

   As my search continues,I find these names in our tree:

 

Allen,Beard,Bennett,Burrows,Caldwell,Cole,Conley,Cope,Coriell, Coryell,Ewes,Gustofsson,Hollinger,Huddleson,Huddleston,Hussey,
