Finding My Family Lineage

Forrest is awesome!  He started a tree for my family history, since he is the one with the paid membership.  The above photo is one of the first we found.  Her name is Annie and she is my 3rd great grandmother.  It has been interesting to see where my family has originated (so far).

My father's side of the family (grandfather's side) has only been in the United States for about a century.  Before that, they were in Prince Edward Island, Canada for approximately a century.  The lineage traces back to Isle of Skye, Scotland.  That is as far as we have gotten so far.  We will work more on it Saturday (tomorrow).

My grandmother's side (father's mother) was interesting and difficult to start because I could not remember her maiden name.  We did figure it out and have started it, but we have not traveled far with her history, yet.  I cannot wait to find more information on her side.  This means a lot to me because the final year of her presence on this Earth was spent talking for hours about her family.  She never talked much about her side, so it is a pleasure to be able to find it all and share it with my sister, loved ones, and everyone reading this.

The opposite side of the family is in progress as well, but I have another picture from that side I will post and talk about.
