One
of my favorite hobbies is researching my
family tree. I've been doing it for a little
over 8 years now and have found out so much
information. I hope you find this site
informative, insightful, and interesting.
Here, you will also learn about us, our
family, our interests, our religion and where
we live.
If
anyone can help me out on my search, or if I
can help anyone out on there their search,
I'll be more than glad to help. The family
names that I'm researching are Smith, Spinks,
Reeves, Chapman, and Rector. I only have a
few links, including my son's page, so feel
free to check them
out.
Tommy, my son, is only 14 years old
and started 9th grade in August. Henry is my
husband. He and I have our
own computer
business
for system support, system
design, and web sited design. So having the
Internet helps a bunch on my genealogy
research.
I
found a distant relative on the Rector's
side. Her name is Doreen Michaels. She lives
in Kalispell, Montana (sort of a long way
from here, I live in Glade Valley, North
Carolina). We've sort of already met, via
e-mail. We "write" to each other quite
often.
I
just received a very nice e-mail on 8/25/2005
from a man whose name is James. They locate
and obtain UK (England & Wales, Scotland
and Northern Ireland) birth, marriage or
death certificates. This is a very good site,
and their rates are reasonable! Just
visit
UK Birth
Certificates!
So
far, on the Rector side of the family, I have
gone back as far as the 1500's! I'm so amazed
that I have been about to go back that far.
However, I would not have been able to
do it without the help of a book at our local
public library called "Rector Records" by
Lawrence King. Sadly, Mr. King has passed
away, but I have been in contact with his
granddaughter and she is still selling the
few copies she has left.
I
have my family lines on Family Tree Maker
exported into .pdf format if you are
interested in looking at them. Click
here
for Rector, and click
here
for the rest, which I haven't sorted
out, compiled, etc. Feel free to download
them to save for yourself. Just click on the
little floppy disk icon on the tool bar.
Again,
welcome and happy hunting and come back to
see me very soon. You can check out which
names I am researching on my
Family Gedcom file.
Who knows, there might be a match! Maybe we
might be able to help each other out. But I
do have to tell you, I use different
genealogy database software. I use Family
Tree Maker 2005 mostly, but I use Legacy
or GRAMPS
(GRAMPS is for Linux only) to create the data into html
format. There may a person here & there
that are in more than once. No, I don't
have Linux on
this computer, I have
Windows XP
Pro, but because of our
business, we have several computers and 2 of
them have Linux on
them. I use Family Tree Maker as well as
GRAMPS, and both are great!
I
have a 'chapter' telling about Aras B. Cox,
one of my ancestors. He had married Phoebe
Edwards. If you would like to download it as
a .PDF file, click
here. When
the page comes up, just click on the disk
icon to save to your computer. You will need
Adobe Acrobat Reader installed on your
computer. To download this file, go
to
 .
Feel
free to browse my site. Just click on the
buttons at the left. I am always in the
process of giving my web site a face-lift,
and I'm constantly updating my family file,
so please pardon the
clutter!
