When my mother passed in 2020, I suddenly developed an interest in genealogy. I have been researching my family and my wife's family. I have found direct links to revolutionary war patriots (both sides of the family) and even Mayflower passengers (my wife's family). I spend most of my time researching the following families: Chamberlain, Chapman, Davis, Doyle, Eldridge/Eldred, Foshee, Frederick/Frederich, Goodermote/Gutermuth, LaBagh, McGough, Raupe/Raub, Rivenburgh, Smith, Thompson, Voltz/Volz, Wyatt.
