66y, been doing genealogy since I was 16. Proud Iowa Sod-Buster's Daughter.

Nice requests get answered, rude ones get deleted.

Never, ever make assumptions that info, photos, and stories are posted "willy-nilly", a little humility goes a long way.

Rest assured, before posting or suggesting details, I have spent hours upon hours of work and money (subscriptions & keep binders of fgr's) doing my research.

I am a descendant of: Wallace-Bates, Follett, Price, Hitchcock, Fell, Walliser; McNaul-McAnaul-Griffin-Gooch-Lantz-Luttrell/Geisinger-Kurtz-King/Bacon-Fisk-Leatherman-Cowell-Brotham: Includes relevant side branches of these families.
