Here is where we work on our family history. If you don’t know where you are from, it’s hard to know where you’re going? In researching our family’s past, we’ve found some pretty amazing characters who led “big” lives. They set a high bar for us to live up to. Finding out about our past enlightens us, inspires us, and moves us forward. Please excuse our dust as this area is always under construction!
