BLOG

When my grandfather passed away in 2005 I inherited his stamp collection and was surprised to find a complete family tree, geneology charts, and related notes buried at the bottom of one of the boxes. Over the past several years I've been researching and verifying the information I found. This research got me interested in tracing my mother's side of the family and I've discovered some interesting things there as well.

Note: I don't list my parents or sibling's names for privacy/security reasons. Also, as with all history, some of the information here may be in dispute or not 100% verified. I've done my best to go with the most accurate information I can find and am constantly updating and editing to keep it as current as possible. Any questions, comments, critiques can be sent to me at kinyon@xlrg.net
