I have been conducting genealogical research for 20 years. I am a member of our local genealogical society.

Currently I am researching the following surname lines (related to me):
Darling, Riddell(have pre and post Civil War Photos), Westcott (Palmyra, WI and Riddell, John Leonard and family of New Orleans, LA)
Dahlberg, Sandburg, Nauta, Stonequist, Edquist (Chicago, IL)
Kramer, DeYoung (from Friesland, Holland to IL Waukegan and Chicago)
Dow (of MA, Haverhill and Essex)
Thayer (MA Worchester and Hillsborough NH)
Byal; Hawkins (both in OH);
Malcolm (Ashland OH)
Graham (Who was the father of DeWitt Clinton Graham before Samuel Lewis?)
Coon (NY Monroe and WI)
Ward (Allegheny Co. MD to Knox co. OH)
Sankey, Runkle and Gilliland all of Centre Co. PA

I have Sankey and Runkle pictures to share.

I am a member of The Lost Treasures Committee of our local Genealogical Society. We match bibles, pictures and other documents with the next of kin or the nearest local archives. I have placed to 130 photos from the Simmons (Sonoma), Banta (Riverside), Wyatt and Phinney families with The Sonoma State University Library Collections department.

I am working on a research project and writing up my findings in "Dutch Origins" which is a story of Susan Kramer of Het Bildt, Friesland, Netherlands and her descendants.

Happy Searching!
