These pages and the genealogy information provided is IN MEMORIAM of my GREAT AUNT DOROTHY OPAL "DOT" MILLER MACHADO. Her hard work and diligent family research inspired me to continue in her memory. Remember Aunt Dot as you search the pages and take a moment to remember others who have inspired you.

I am currently researching the surnames, Applegate, Møller, Miller, Van Hoosan, Van Hoosen, Holmes, Henderson, Goodeill, Salyer and Pourner. The researcher database is growing, if you are interested in these lines, please email to be added to the researcher update database. Information is available that is not currently posted. I would appreciate notification if you have information and sources that conflict, dispute or disprove any posted information. Many other surnames are included. Please search the reports to see if you match up. I am currently expanding most of these lines, check back often for updates.
