Becky,
What a great post; wonderful photos and content. I found your post through the Carnival of Genealogy and it was well worth the trip!! Cheryl
Great photos and list, Becky! You've done a lot of research!
Thank you both. I'm so fortunate that my grandmother and other family members have shared their photographs with me. It's been lots of work and great fun to research these families over the past 20 years or so. I'm looking forward to another 20 years (or more!) to flesh out additional information on these and other ancestors. Thanks for stopping by.
Thanks Becky, great post and pictures! I wish I knew as much about my mother's side of the family!

The ability to comment has been turned off for all blog posts effective 21 May 2018. Kinexxions has been inactive for more than two years and most comments have come to me directly via email from readers but more than a few were simply spam. My desire is to keep the blog available to the public since there is value in what has been published, particularly posts dealing with family history.
I am still extremely interested in hearing from readers who might be related and have questions or simply want contact with a distant cousin. Please contact me directly via email at kinexxions@gmail.com
This action is also being taken partially due to the General Data Protection Regulation aka "GDPR" going into effect on 25 May 2018. Even though it is a regulation implemented by the European Union that primarily affects businesses and corporations, it governs how data about people can be used. That includes comments left on blog posts, thus the ability to comment is no longer available.
