Where does one start when trying to find their roots??
Years ago when I was in the convent I made a scrapbook of just the immediate family. Each sibling had their own page (dates and Pictures).
My sister Peggy back in Prospect Ct was going much deeper into the family Roots. She read everything she could find on the McNeil side. It was much harder to find much about the Nash family at this time.
Then in 1981 Peggy Betty and I went to Nova Scotia and spent time looking for anybody or anything to help with our roots.
On Dad's side we were able to trace our ancestors back to egypt.From this trip I started keeping the material my sister Peggy had researched about the McNeil and Nash family.
So I would like to thank Peggy for handing the material down to me and for all the help she gave me to keep the interest in working on this genealogy and also my older sister Mary's daughter Linda Stuart for coming and helping me get this web-page started, without these two people this project would still be a dream. I would also like to thank my cousin in Canada who gave me so much on the Nash side her name is Maxine Pasterik.
Any additions or corrections to this site please e-mail me.
