I imagine how they looked, how many hardships they must have suffered, see them struggling to raise a family of 12 or more. I feel the pain they went through when they had to bury a child. It's more than names......it's my roots!!!!!!!! >> I feel the same way, Bobbi. And just this week I got mail from TN from two recently found cousins. Info and pictures on my WHITTEDS and I can't tell you just how it makes me feel. WOW! It is so special to see a face and put it with those names in the family charts. I am very grateful for those who share. Brenda who is on this list is one who shared much. She has been so helpful to me and we have become friends in the process. Thanks to all of you generous and helpful people who make this list so great. Mary Lou Indianapolis, IN
