The above families came to N.America from places such as England, Germany, Ireland, Scotland, Sweden and Wales. They immigrated to Virginia, the Carolinas, Alabama, Tennessee, Arkansas, Texas and beyond. What kind of lives did they lead? Were they just regular working folks or individuals who found themselves caught up in turbulent political situations? At various times in their lives, probably both. If you have ever wondered about the circumstances that led up to the particular time and place into which you were born, just click on any of the above names to view that family's information. Who knows, you may find a family connection . . . but even if you don't, my hope is that you will discover, as I have, the fascination and excitement of getting to know the individuals whose blood now flows through your veins.
