I am researching Jean and Magdalene Waeckel from Alsace; oral history says Strasbourg, France (Or Germany), maternal grandparents.
The family of Katie Hide, paternal grandmother.
The Family of George W. Jones, Sr. and Jr., my father and brother. I have the entries of the family Bible of J. W. Jones, my paternal grandfather, George W. Jones'Sr. 's father
The family of Henry Schmidt from Baden, Germany, paternal grandfather
The Knox family from Baton Rouge, LA., cousins' family
The Dodson family of Sheffield, Alabama, daughter of George W.Schmidt, my uncle
The Schmidt family from Baton Rouge, LA, another uncle's family
I have gathered much information on my family and have it all in notebooks with protective pages, etc. by families. I have many pictures, memoribilia, infomation, short histories, etc. in folders.
I have my husband's, Jackie Marchant's family: Williams, Marchant, Brown, Rich, I have Jackie's great-grandfather's military record in the Civil War and Jackie had done research on his military record (William Marchant- Merchant).
We visited grave sites and have pictures of those gravesites along with directions as to how to get to those gravesites. Jackie has his family back to 1715 England, which was done by Hazel Copeland in the Decatur County, GA history book. I have a copy of that book. One relative served in the Revolutionary War at Valley Forge. He was a Captain. His father was a Private in the Revolutionary War! The father was Reuben and was killed and buried in the Catskill Mountains, as I recall.
