Genealogy
The study of genealogy is a fascinating journey into history, travel, and the dynamic interconnection of the human population. Our ancestors were people - just like we - who were born, lived, married, moved (perhaps), had families, and passed on their legacies to future generations. Most of those stories are lost in the mists of the past. Some are not. This site is just a small attempt to document and perhaps add some dimension and life to a few of those people.
Probably the most striking aspect of growing a family tree is to discover where the branches came from. The United States, often described as a "melting pot", has probably the most diverse population of any country in the world. As a starting point, it offers a rich opportunity to uncover in our family histories the peoples and cultures of a myriad of countries. Who were they? Where did they come from? And why did they come HERE?
Our family has two main branches, one French and the other English. The two lines meet in the United States - one having been here for over over 300 years, and the other arriving by an odd set of circumstances in the first part of the 20th century. Today, a new generation has branched out to another country, and the cycle continues.
