I am researching my family with the names of Robertshaw, Foley, Wintermute, Vrablic, Kreamer and Kostelnik.My whole family ended up in Pennsylvania and we emmigrated here from areas such as Germany, Ireland, Czechoslovakia (Bratoslov, Zamutov and Ceklov).The first emmigrater on my fathers side came to this country in 1731 and settled in Stillwater, NJ.The house, which was made of stone is still standing!
My mothers side of the family consisted of many coal miners and my grandfather along with his 3 brothers all served in different branches of the service.
I first ended up buying this software because of the numerous school assignments I had to do on my family.I talked mainly with my Nana and my grandma and was able to get the information that I have here.I have really gotten into finding out who my ancestors are, when they came to this country, and all other interesting information that I want to be able to take on this project myself and date it back as far as I can.I am just getting started, but I find it so interesting. I know on my father's side that there is a newsletter for our family tree and there is a group that meets every 2 years.I would love to know more information, past what I already have written down now, so anyone who can help, I appreciate it:)
