WELCOME! You have stumbled upon the most confused genealogy page on the net! In my records, you can find many different nationalities, religious affiliations and ethnic groups. In fact it's so diverse, that when our children ask about their heritage, we must say "All of the above"! (Actually, we haven't found any Asian ancestors yet, but who knows what we'll find as we continue our research!)
Our present list of family surnames includes (and this is not by any means complete) :
Britt Breen Burns Conor Cooper Finigan Gratz Isemann Leonowitz Marino Middleton Moore Muracco Myers Pecukonis Richardson Schindler Smith Woods
The WOODS-SMITH-MIDDLETON-BRITT group came in through Virginia, moved down to the Carolinas, and then headed west into Tennessee, Kentucky and Illinois, and south into Arkansas and Texas. The MOORE-RICHARDSON group were Pennsylvania Quakers, and stayed in that area.The MYERS popped up mysteriously in the Ballard County, Ky area with the birth of my g-grandmother Lora Mae MYERS in 1883...there are no other records there!The rest are from everywhere else including Germany, Sicily, Ireland, Scotland, Poland, Lithuania France, Canada, and probably several other places.
Any and all leads are gratefully accepted, and I'll help you out, too.I hope to hear from you!
