Some families know a great deal about their roots; others know very little. This site is an attempt to record what I've learned about my family history, and the history of my wifes family.

In these modern times, families tend to be scattered all over the country, if not all around the world. Couple this with the frenetic pace of modern living and most people do not have the time to think about their ancestors.

 

I read somewhere ......

 

"We all die twice.  The first time is when we physically die.

 

The second time is when we are forgotten."

 

One of the goals of this web site is to provide a living bond between us, even though we live far apart. Most importantly it is to enable our grandchildren to know and understand the generations that came before them, and to make sure they are not forgotten!
