The purpose of this web page is to share information. Family trees like real trees start small and grow to be huge. This has happened here and the time and effort to keep updated is tremendous. The practice followed by most family trees is to only show early generations and that practice is being implemented here. The expanded family connections and updates will continue and you can still keep in touch using the contact information on the home page. http://mysite.verizon.net/bushwhak
