Biography

PLEASE READ.... If you make changes please provide the sources to back it up. I provide many sources to backup my genealogy, but mistakes do happen. Also please do not use abbreviations for( months,) states, or the United States. Many countries use some of the same abbreviations as we do here in the United States. As I go through I am trying to update the abbreviations to proper genealogical protocol. If you find any mistakes please let me know so I can correct them in my separate data base. Thanks so much, CaryAnn
