My Great Grandmother 11-11-21

Who Resembles my Mother (her granddaughter) as a Young Woman

*******************

My Family Tree
Pretty Women & Brave Men
Americana

*******************

I knew that the Maternal Side of my Father's Family tree goes the whole way back to the 1600's and the first American settlers. They helped shape a Nation.

Tonight, I did a bit of genealogy research (hoping to fill in some of the blanks) and discovered new names in the Maternal Side of my Mother's Family tree. They take that branch of the family in America back to at least the mid 1700's. Along with this new information, I also discovered still another direct ancestor who fought in the Revolutionary War.
