Here's a little bit of bio about us. I was born in Butte County, California. Willie was born in Webster County, Missouri. We live in California.
I am the family researcher, but Willie is a great supporter of my efforts.
We both enjoy and marvel as each new piece of our family history is found. Our ancestors were special and through research by me and others, we hope that they will be fondly remembered and never gotten.
I began searching our family history in 1994 and like many others, we wish that we would have had the foresight to ask our siblings, parents, and grandparents questions before they passed away.
In tracing our families, I discovered that all of our lines were in America by 1828, and most much earlier.
Another interesting discovery, is that many of our ancestors settled in the state of Missouri between 1800-1870, in various counties.
Many of Willie’s ancestors stayed in Missouri. All my ancestors had moved out of the state prior to 1870.
We want to give a special thank you to family members who have shared their family history & photographs with us. Many of these family members are "new found cousins" who are also interested in family history. Also, I want to thank those who have shared their genealogy research knowledge with me. Last but not least, I want to thank the many Internet volunteers who give their time in helping others.
We delight in sharing our Family History, so please visit our other pages that will go into more detail and please remember that this will always be "work in progress." Please let me know if you find discrepancies.
