I have been nominated to be Regent in my Daughters of the American Revolution chapter, its exciting. The installation will be in May. And after I am Regent I get to go to Iowa Falls to see cousins, some of whom I've never met. The Ellises are coming!!! Genealogy is one of my passions. I check my family connections regularly. One of my more successful lines is Ellis. I have the most information on it. Some of my newer aquisitions, names I am only now learning about are Guild, Grogan, Sippy, Reagles.
Some family names I need help with are Wilbright (mine are not Forestville Mn wilbrights), Schaefer, Dean,Jones, Fye, Thomas,Woodcock. There are many many many more I need help with. I don't just search for direct lines. I also research names who married in, and their children.
