The information on these pages is the direct result of 4 geographically-distant researchers (PA, TN, NY & MO) sharing their information. Each of us had our own limited collection of family lore but together, WOW! 

Photos have been shared, connections have been made, and family histories have been dramatically expanded.   The cooperation continues, so watch for updates as more information is shared.
