2010 marks the fifth year of my ancesteral journey and a celebration of helping others reconnect with lost relatives.

I've connected with relatives in my home state South Carolina, to North Carolina, Florida, Georgia, Virginia, California, Arkansas, Kansas, Oklahoma, Arizona, New York, Ohio, and New Jersey.

My desire is learn about my family history, but I like to help others outside of my family, too. If you need help with researching your family, please email me. I can create a book, a family tree chart for you to hang in your home or to have at family reunions, and a presentation for others to follow along at reunions. Let me help you make your reunion a success!

I am currently researching the following surnames: Bradwell,Cleveland,Foster,Jenkins,Landrum,Lyles,Meadows,Nesbitt,Owens,Prather,Ray, Rice,Rogers,Stephens,Thompson,Waddell,Wheeler, Wilkes, & Williams.

Email me if you feel that we are connected and/or you need help with researching relatives at rogersfamily816@charter.net!

Be blessed,
Kaye
