My great grandfather began the search back in 1870. Our irish family and our English family the Barbers, who came from Newtonstewart, ireland abt 1835 and our Benedict family that came from England and helped settle New England. This information was passed down among family members, cousins that were still living on the family farm in Michigan and finally came to me...out in Washington State. i have found quite a lot of new info with the help of computers . I help with our own state archives and enter data from all the records they have so more people can find their relatives. I would enjoy hearing from anyone in my tree. .there are quite a few!
