Digging into our family history creates deep connections. Genealogy is about finding our roots. As we research our family tree, we realize how our lives are intertwined with the history of our great nation. My family history includes the Quillin family, the Ewing family, the McNair family, the Jones family, the Bridges family, the King family and the Hulsey family. It is an honor to share their family stories. Search each family name by clicking the labels on the bottom right side.

Cherished Handwritten Notes
I love that these are written in my mother's handwriting. They are some of the first scratch notes that Mother wrote. The first one seems to be in bullet form. Each line could start with "Ava".
