Welcome to My Website!
This page is dedicated to those people I am a part of that have passed before me. Through this research it has given me insight into how they lived and it provides me a way to share in their lives and preserve their history for future generations. |

I come from a long line of ministers, mostly Baptist, but some "Church of England" fellows too who apparently were not afraid to make a stand. Particularly, Rev. William Worcester who was Vicar of the Church of Olney in Buckinghamshire, England from 1624 to 1636. He refused to comply with the command of his superior to read to his congregation from the King's book, portions that allowed sports and recreation on Lord's Day and was suspended from that position. He was then disinherited by his father, and came to the States and settled Salsbury, Massachusetts! My father always told me, "you would cut off your nose to spite your face if it was over a matter of principle" (which I have done many times)! Now I know where I get that from! |

I have individual pages for many of my family lines where I have photographs, imaged documents, including old Family Bible entries as well as other important links related to these lines. Many of these items have been passed down for many generations and I can't explain the feeling when you hold a small book in your hands that your gr-gr-grandmother held over 150 years ago! It has really given me a feel for the people that I am a part of that I have not ever met. If you have any questions, please let me know! Happy Hunting! |
