I have been doing genealogy since about 1963-4 when I was 13-14 years old, am self taught as the craze for genealogy didn't start until the television series Roots hit the airwaves. I grew up in Brown and Nemaha Counties of Kansas where my families have been since the late 1850's, so I do a lot of research in those areas.
I am the:
son of Robert Anton Gilbert & Naydean Lee
grandson of Ralph Gilbert & Atha Geneva Smith; William Douglas Lee Sr. & Mildred Mae Grimm
great grandson of Wm Anderson Gilbert & Mary Jane Anderson; Samuel James Burnworth Smith & Lena Susan Geiger; Wm Douglas Lee and Ambrosia "Ammie" Kaster; Alexander Bluebaugh Grimm & Laura Etta Rogers
2great grandson of Ezekiel Gilbert & Elizabeth Jane McGuire; Ole Anderson & Kjersti Bronson; John I. Smith & Adaline Meyers; Joseph Geiger & Elisabeth Zintsmaster; Wm Henderson Lee & Margaret Ann Strong; Enoch Kaster & Malinda Davis; Johnathan Grimm & Mary Bluebaugh; Hosea Alexander Rogers & Hannah Carter.
