Welcome to Family Trails
This website is dedicated to
the family history research of both mine (Beth) and my husband,
Chuck's families.
In researching our family
histories we have discovered that we have a rich heritage in
every branch of our family tree. We take great pride in knowing
that while our ancestors were not famous and notable people in
history, they were the backbone of the country. The pioneer
settlers, the farmers, the ranchers, the coal miners, the
soldiers, the teachers, the carpenters, the law officers, the
factory workers, .... the everyday people who made this country
what it is today. They were people who will never have novels,
movies or songs written about them. They were simple, hard
working people who deserve to be remembered by the people who's
lives they shaped. We hope to share with you the kind of people
that they were and to give a humble attempt at trying to tell at
least a small part of their story.
This website is in the process
of being 'redone'. It was in serious need of being organized and
put into a better format. Please be patient as we work on this
as our time permits. We hope that you will check back
periodically to see what has been added. Feel free to contact
me if you would like to include anything. ~Beth
