Welcome to my genealogy website, Our Family Treasures. My
database has over 10,000 individuals, which are not all listed on this
website. I am updating all lines and will put the branch that I’m
presently working on in the marquee above. As I update my direct
ancestors' their surnames will appear in capital letters. For more
details see "What's New" in the Stories Section above and the
Recent Name List in the sidebar.
I am also experimenting with having my tree over on Ancestry.com. I
don't have a subscription to Ancestry so it is limited. It also has the same
name "Our Family Treasure" Owner: genealogy411, with only a few individuals
entered so far.
Family Members need to click on the link "Request Invitation" located
above to acquire access to the private information on this site if you have not
already done so.
However, if you are researching any surnames listed here and require
more details please use the search field above in the black bar or contact me
and give me the names that you are interested in with approximate time frame
and I'd be happy to check.

Genealogy Sayings...
Genealogy without sources is nothing more that just mythology.
A family tree can wither if no one tends to its roots.
Only a geneologist regards a step backwards as progress.
Genealogy: A hay stack full of needles. It's the threads I need.
I only work on Genealogy on days that end in "Y".
Shh!! be very, very quite. I'm hunting forebears.
Gene-Allergy: It's a contagious disease, but I love it.
Genealogy begins as an interest, becomes a hobby, continues as an avocation,
takes over as an obsession and in its last stage is an incurable disease.
Genealogy is like playing hide and seek. They hide...I seek.
Do you know where your Great Great Grandparents are?
A Genealogists Prayer
By Curtis Woods
Lord, help me dig into the past
And shift the sands of time
That I might find the roots that made
This family tree of mine
Lord, help me trace the ancient roads
On which my fathers trod
And led them through so many lands
To find our present sod.
Lord, help me find an ancient book
Or dusty manuscript
That's safely hidden now away
In some forgotten crypt;
Lord, let it bridge the gape that haunts
My soul when I can't find
The missing link between some name
That ends the same as mine.
