the Barber & Lacey families...
Ancestral homes
... we've documented where our Maize, Barber, and Lacey ancestors lived in Pennsylvania, Iowa, and South Dakota.

We've actually visited each of these sites, and in this section, we share photographs and notes on the locations of each for your convenience if you decide to visit as well...
