Hello, I am very excited... I have just finished uploading my whole family tree to the internet. There are almost 3,600 individuals, most dating pre-1900. Below are the major/main lines and their routes of migration. But there are hundreds of other surnames ("branches")... some having dozens of individuals each. I would sincerely love to trade info with anyone who thinks there is a connection :-) To view the entire database: http://www.myfamily.com enter user name: user1 enter password: user1 to see the individuals B & D dates, along with places, use the search option. Thank you for your time.
