As I began my search for my McNair ancestors, my grandmother's sister, Ova, was a great help. It was interesting to visit with her. She was so kind and pleasant. The women of the McNair family all had gentle spirits. I loved her from afar. Ova passed away in 2006, and I am grateful to have known her.
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.
