When I decided to put this family history together I was only intending to compile some facts and figures. I was bored after foot surgery and began looking on Ancestry. I was surprised at some of the stuff I found and thought others might find it interesting so I figured I'd make it into a book to make it easier for those interested to find the information. As I looked deeper and deeper into the family though, I began to want to know who these people behind the names and dates were. As I got to the timeframe when pictures started appearing I would look into the eyes of those distant relatives and wonder what they were thinking. Were they good people? Did they enjoy life? Did they spoil their kids? While the first four books I put together were direct lines, I did find some other really interesting individuals while I was doing research and thought others might be interested in knowing them too so I put this book together of "Notables". Take a look through the book and learn a little about these extended members of the family. I'm sure you will find individuals that you find fascinating. Little tidbits that will surprise you. Maybe even some that will encourage you to do your own research. One thing I am confident of is that you will find a family you will be proud to be a part of.
