Fixed hehe Last Edited by Chrit on 12/15/2011 09:09 PM I'm only human, it's my biggest flaw. We must all realize a sink a chair and a pillow are all luxuries of home and a soldiers helmet takes the place of all three. |

bug User ID: 1295673 United States 12/15/2011 08:25 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Direct descendant of John Howland and also John Alden. Mayflower passenger and ship's carpenter. My aunt is making the search results into a book for the family. I have 53 cousins. My mother was the eldest of 10 girls and I am the eldest grand-child. I used to love Sunday dinners at Grand-mother's. Wild and noisy but heaps of food... ~ |

Future generations will only have to plug our names into Google and our Issue will be able to see not only our names and family members, but our credit score, addresses, criminal history, and more. All with the push of a button...our lives will come alive on their computers. That really does kind of suck! |
Chrit User ID: 1302953 United States 12/15/2011 08:36 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Yep can trace my family tree back to the begging, when in the 1290's they had to record a sir name for tax reasons. Quoting: Chrit So you come from lots of money then? No, my father was orphaned because of WWII, but became a self made man. Family has a crater named on the moon after a great,great,great,great,great grandfather. First ancestors that came to the U.S. fought in the civil war for Sherman. Before coming to the U.S. they were all college professors, chemists or owned textile factories. I am the last one, I had no sons nor did my brothers...kind of sad acutely.
