With some of the family trees, there is a special thanks to the people/family who have helped me with that specific name. If you feel you've been left out, or you're listed in the wrong spot, please let me know!

And of course the biggest THANK YOU goes out to those who have gone before us, without whom we would have no past or present! Please feel free to read my essay, "What Genealogy Means To Me"

Disclaimer: None of these surnames have been absolutely confirmed. There is *a lot* of research to be done yet.
