Maxine I am proud to be a part of the Great Organization of the Sackett Families. We are all working for the same goal. To find our history and make it public for the world to see. It is my ambition to try and uncover as much history as i can and to preserve it for all to see. I try to help everybody that contacts me looking for information on their family history. Almost every day i get at least one email from somebody that is at a brick wall and looking for any piece of information to break down that wall. If i can't help them then i try to steer them to where they might get more help. When someone tells me i cant find something, that makes me look that much harder. I have a cousin that was looking for a grave for 30 years. I did some research and went looking for that grave. I had to go to the town hall and search the records. They had the person listed, and when they died but didn't list which cemetery they was buried in. I had to search 3 Cemeteries before i found that grave but i did find it. When i called the cousin in Ohio and told him that i had found the grave, he was so excited that he drove over to Massachusetts so i could show him the grave stone. I guess the moral of this story is don't give up! Where ever you go keep searching.
