This site is dedicated to my family history. My ancestors
arrived to this country from England as early as the Jamestown settlers and
as recently as the Swedish emigration of 1880. Their lives, like those of
other immigrants, are interwoven in the rich historical fabric and exciting
cultural development of this country. None were famous, rich or even noteworthy,
but all worked hard to raise their families and to better their lot. They
were farmers, laborers, printers, dyers, clergy, teachers, soldiers, lawyers
and doctors. Their stories are included in the early dutch settlement of
New York, the founding of the Jamestown colony, the maritime trade in Maine,
the Quaker movement, the California gold rush, crossing on the Oregon
trail, the Civil War and all the other major and minor events
that shaped their lives and secured our heritage. I am very thankful and
blessed to have the chance to get to know them. |
