The following list of people are among those who have contributed or helped me in some way, directly or indirectly, over the years -- either for my personal genealogy research and/or for this genealogy website. This list is NOT complete -- I'll keep adding to this list as often as I can:
The order they are listed below has nothing to do with their "importance", the quantity of material they have submitted, or anything else -- they're listed in alphabetical order.
Where you would be in your
genealogy research if someone hadn't helped you somehow, large or
small, along the way? Everyone has some genealogical information they
can share with others. Please help other researchers by sharing
-- even if it's "only" a single record (such as an obituary, census
listing, bible record, headstone inscription, etc.), it could be of
help or interest to other researchers.

Always be sure to document your sources fully whenever possible -- genealogical information without sources is considered unreliable. And please give proper research credit to those to whom it belongs (you wouldn't want your work plagiarized by others would you?). Please remember to use the information you find on this site (and the internet in general) as a research aide -- I cannot verify the accuracy of the information.

I hope you find something within this web site to help you in your research. I add information to the site as I transcribe or scan more records, or as they are shared with me by others -- it's always a work in progress
