"The Many Shades of Our Heritage"
In the depths of history came "The Many Shades of Our Heritage". English, French, German, Indian, Irish, Italian and Scotch. Our "Shades" faced many struggles; political imbalance, high seas, rugged wilderness, uncertainty and poverty. They also shared many blessed times of joy and accomplishment. Let us remember our ancestors with grace and dignity.
They are our inspiration.

Thanks to all of my "Cousins" for your help in putting our family together. Most of the information in my database is from verbal conversations with relatives, family bible's and the www. I am working on adding/updating my sources and evidencing my tree so check back for more info. My database is no where near complete! Please do not take any of the information in my database as "fact" unless it says so. I include any family info that seems to make "sense". I am working on evidencing my direct lines backward on the info I've received. I respectfully welcome your feedback and/or corrections, family photos, stories, etc. I thank all of my cousin's who have sent me family information.
Love and Laughter! Your Cousin, Michelle Higgason Myers mhiggy63@maain.com
