NEW! Our Family Connections
We've added a forum called
Our Family Connections to our site. On the new forum you
will be able to interact with other family members and discuss research questions,
family reunions, or just chat with other family members. Please take a moment to
check out the forum by clicking on the
Our Family Connections
link at the left of
each page. Be among the first to add your comments at the forum.
Event Maps
Please check out the Event Map section on each
individual's page. Now you can see at a glance where a person was born, died,
resided, etc. Click on the balloons on each map to see the events that
occurred at the location. Click on the balloons to the right of each map and
a new page will open containing a full map of that location.
Maps are also provided on the Cemetery pages to help you easily find the
cemeteries. And if you look up a place, it will also provide a map.
What Was It Like Then?
Have you ever wondered what it was like to live during the times of your
ancestor (or descendent)? Try out the Timeline feature found on every
individual's page. After finding a particular person's page click on the
Timeline tab near the top. What you will receive is a list of many the
special events that occurred during the person's life. You can add (or
delete) people from the timeline using the appropriate buttons. Give it a
try. Did your ancestor live when they invented the slinky?
