I began doing family research about 30 years ago. I owe a great debt for the early information to my father, Leland Knapp, and to a box of pictures that my grandmother had given him. Many evening we spent going thru the box of pictures and he would tell me stories about the people in the pictures. Since my father's death in 1986. I had put the side. I continued to dabble in it once in a while. Then within the past year, thanks to a couple of cousins who set a fire under me, it has become a major portion of my life. Thanks to internet contacts my family tree is growing every day. Both sides of my family, Knapp and Abbott were among the first settlers in Conn. Other family names include Jordan, Brooks, McElhose, Wormley, Stewart, Felgenhaur, Rood, Grier, Pleis, and Hoffman along with many others. The earliest dates I presently have go back to about 400 BC. Most of what I have found comes from internet contacts.
