 | I have been interested in my family history since I was 16. Since my marriage, I've added my husband's lines to my search areas. The primary names (starting points) for my family are Jimerson (Jamison) and Patterson, Allison and Nidiffer. My husband's are Bell and Ryan, Crum and Chisham. I also hunt for the collateral lines--the siblings and the in-laws as they often have led me to information I really wanted.
Both of us grew up in Oklahoma; our fathers came from Arkansas; most of our lines seem to be mainly southern.
We have lived in Minnesota for nearly 40 years now. |
