I am currently working on my family tree and I
will update this page periodically with up-to-the-minute info.
Currently, I will just have a list of my great-grandparents and their
parents here. The great-great grandparents have links to pages with
their family trees. Some of the family trees are more extensive
than the others.

If you have ANY information at all on any of these people, including POSSIBLE family ties,please E-mail me!! I would be forever indebted to you. I will gladly respond.
Other family names include the Burrs and Nashes of Fairfield, CT,
the Bradleys of Branford, CT, and the Birds of Holmes County, Ohio. Also, Lizzie Belle Watrous
is descended from Edward Fuller and his son Samuel, who were passengers on the Mayflower!!
A well researched and very informative Mayflower site is
Caleb Johnson's Mayflower Web Pages.
If you are trying to do ANYTHING genealogical, I highly recommend that you visit
Cyndi Howell's web site.
There are TENS OF THOUSANDS
of links that are nicely arranged by category.
I recently sent away to Colchester, CT for two certified
death certificates. I received copies of a few ledger pages from the town
records. Rather than use the info that I need and throw away the rest, I
have transcribed all the info that is on the pages and posted it on
its own page.
The pages cover parts of the years 1866, 1867, and 1896. Check it out!!
I have created another webpage showing burials in
Ponemah Cemetery
in Colchester. I have some relatives buried there,
and I have taken notes over the years that may be useful to other
genealogists out there!
