Introduction
As with all research, this site is a work in progress. I am currently developing the Main Page, researching the Family Tree. The goal of this wiki is to provide biographical sketches (focusing on sources) for family members of interest. It will also be a place to publish research notes, and articles providing historical and interesting context to the lives of those captured in my family tree.
