I have to admit, setting up and writing this blog has been a huge challenge. It’s a bit of a learning curve and I am still trying to get it right so please, if you are reading this, overlook the mistakes! I have felt very compelled, driven to share my family history as well as write my own autobiography. No man is an island, no man stands alone, we all come from someone who has had a part in making us who we are today. I sincerely hope you enjoy reading and learning about each of our family ancestors as I have. Please feel free to add comments or share stories that may come up as you read. I’m sure there is more!
