With the death of my father it left us with no parents and we realized with them went many pieces of family history. We had heard many stories over the years but never thought to write them down. Now we wish we had as we had to go through family documents and talk with the few remaining family members to find the information that we accumulated. We were able to piece together at least part of our family histories so future generation can have them.

We are still looking for more information on the following family names:

Alberts     Barber      Chaffee     Koerner

Lyon    Munson    Weatherly

For the most part they came to the midwest primarily Arkansas, Kentucky, Ohio, Indiana, Michigan, Wisconsin.
