    “He who careth not whence he came, careth not whither he goeth.”

    I currently have over 24,000 people listed in

    my Family Tree. I will gladly share with you the

    wealth of information I have on the following families:

     

    Atiyeh - DeChant - Feather - Fretz -

    Haddad - Hadeed - Hajjar - Hess -

    Keeley - Khoury/Koury/Cury - Knauss/Knouse -

    Kressley - Landis - Leister - Levan -

    Meyer - Moyer - Nusbaum/Nussbaum(er) -

    Ober - Oberholtzer/Overholt - Plank - Romig -

    Schatz - Siegfried - Stauffer/Stover - Wanner

    Wentzel - Wickerham - Yeakel - Yoder - Younis

    “There is no better heritage that a father can bequeath to his children than a good name; nor is there in a family, a richer heirloom, than the memory of a noble ancestor.”

    Updated August 2009

    Welcome to our Family Web page! This genealogy web page was designed to share with you the research that has been done on our Family Trees. For the past several years I posted the information I had collected on the internet. However, during this past year, I have been asked by more and more people to remove the information for security reasons. Unfortunate as it is, people could use the information, that they found from my site, to steal identities. I have been left with little choice other than to remove the Family Tree entirely from the web page.

     

    If you are a family member (or think you may be a family member) and would like to know more about your ancestors, please e-mail me and I will gladly provide you with a PDF file of your family tree. Unfortunately, I just can not continue to post the information on the web.

    Our Family Tree is rich with history. May God Bless each of your families with good health, happiness and love.

    Blessings,

    Jeanne

    Planting a Family Tree

    is easier than

    researching for one.

    Genealogy:

    Chasing your own tale!

     

    Quarantined!!

     

    The creator of this web site

    has been stricken with

    GENEALOGY FEVER,

    a deadly and infectious disease!

     

    GENEALOGY:

    Pride in the Past,

    Faith in the Future

     

    A Prayer for Genealogists

    Lord, help me dig into the past,
    And sift the sands of time.
    That I might find the roots that made,
    This family tree of mine. Lord, help me trace the ancient roads,
    On which my fathers trod.
    And led them though so many lands,
    To find out present sod. Lord, help me find an ancient book,
    Or dusty manuscript.
    That’s safely hidden now away     in some forgotten crypt.

    Lord, let it bridge the gap that haunts my soul when I can't find, The missing link between some name that ends the same as mine.

     

    If you want to find

    a needle in a haystack,

    you've got to be

    scientific about it.

    Otherwise, it's like trying

    to find a needle in a haystack.

    Try Genealogy...You can't get fired and you can't quit! Genealogists collect dead relatives!

     

    Genealogy:

    Tracing yourself back to better people.

     

    I trace my family history so

    I know who to blame.

     

    Friends come and go,

    but relatives

    tend to accumulate.

     

    Genealogists never die:

    they just lose their roots.

    I think my family tree

    is a few branches

    short of a full bloom!

     

    Genealogy:

    Collecting dead relatives

    and

    sometimes a live cousin!

     

     

    Take nothing but ancestors,

    leave nothing but records.

     

    Shake your family tree and

    watch the nuts fall!

    Trees without roots fall over.

     

    It's hard to be humble with ancestors like mine.

     

     

    A new cousin a day

    keeps the boredom away.

     

    When you search for relatives,

    you find great friends!

     

    Every family tree produces

    some lemons, some nuts,

    and a few bad apples!

    A family tree can wither if nobody tends its roots.

    Genealogists do it

    in cemeteries.

     

    Theory of relativity:

    If you go back far enough,

    we're all related.

     

     

    Genealogists live in the past lane

     

     

    When we die we

    become 'stories'

    in the minds

    of other people.

     

    I'm not stuck,

    I'm ancestrally challenged

     

    Isn't genealogy fun?

    The answer to one problem,

    leads to two more!

     

     

    A pack rat is hard to live with,

    but makes a fine ancestor

     

     

    I want to find ALL of them!

    So far I only have

    a few thousand

     

     

    I think my ancestors

    had several "Bad heir" days

     
    I should have asked them BEFORE they died!

     

    Only a Genealogist regards

    a step backwards,

    as progress

     

    It's an unusual family that hath

    neither a lady of the evening

    nor a thief.

     

    Shh! Be very, very quiet...

    I'm hunting forebears.

     

    I'm not sick,

    I've just got fading genes

     

    Documentation...The hardest part of genealogy

     

     

    Cousins marrying cousins:

    Very tangled roots!
