I had a very exciting breakthrough last week just completely out of the blue. For a long time I’ve been a little stuck in Cory’s family tree tracing the lineage of Francis Adams Lobner. We knew her parents and that her father was from Germany, but William Adam(s) (it shows up both ways) was hardContinue reading “Adam(s) Family Breakthrough”

Additional Civil War Soldiers
I decided to also get from the National Archives the pensions for two brothers of my direct line ancestors and have received both of them. One was for Andrew Clutter, brother of my 4X Great Grandfather George Clutter, who eventually ties into Blanche Pocock. Andrew was killed near Atlanta in the Civil War and IContinue reading “Additional Civil War Soldiers”

Children’s Book – James Hagerdon and the Oregon Trail
I had a wild idea (I have those sometimes) and thought it might be fun to put together a couple of little, short stories for some of the youngsters in the family and tell them some of the stories about their ancestors. One that was easy and relevant to places the kids knew was theContinue reading “Children’s Book – James Hagerdon and the Oregon Trail”

Gottlieb MunterContinue reading “Swiss Family Munter Research”

This time I added two additional people from the Billington Family and two from the Eaton Family. Earlier I had proven Francis Billington and Francis Eaton. This roundContinue reading “Mayflower Supplementals – Again”

Initially, it I wasn’t super excited about it thinking that I knew where all of the family members I was interested in were living at that point in time. Then it came to me. MyContinue reading “Paul Munter – 1950 Census”
