Ancestors of Bill and Kathy Awbrey

I sit and write
The dust get thicker
The cobwebs grow
The bed is unmade
The dishes washed? No!!
I sit and write. Lest I might not have the time to write
and tell my Grandchildren things they may need to know.
Who's on their Family Tree.
And from where the "Greats" all came
England, Germany, France, Holland?
Yes, all of those.
Then tell their names, as far back in time, that I can find.
I write because on of my "Greats passed down a story one day.
Some men on horseback stopped by to ask,
if she could fix them something to eat.
And so she fed them a repast,
from her meager supplies, quite a feat.
When the men re-mounted to ride away,
One man said, "Young lady, tell your grandchildren of this day."
and as he gather up his reins,
"You just cooked dinner for Jesse James."

I started working on my genealogy in 1979. Within a year, my mother had joined me in the fun. This web page is the result of our efforts. Without her loving help, there wouldn't be nearly as much information. I have added pictures and stories as well as wills and other items in the scrapbook and notes sections.

Table of Contents

The ancestry report uses 'Ahnentafel' numbering. This means that the numbers for a person's parents will be twice as large as that person's number. For example, if a woman's number is 15, her father will be number 30, and her mother will be 31. Her child will be number 7.
