Welcome!

Over the years I have collected all kinds
of items pertaining to my genealogy from different
resources. I either received them from family members,
emails, letters or websites. I was first bitten by the
genealogy bug back in 1993 when I attended a HIGHLEY
FAMILY REUNION. My uncle Vern Highley had given me some
information on my Highley family and he said to all of
us who attended, "Let's see how much further you can
get?" So, I took him up on it. Now, it's 29
years later and boy did I get a lot further. I
started off with about 50 family members and now I have
close to 32,600 people in my Family Tree program!
I was able to share with my Uncle Vern many things I had
found over the years, since he first had asked that
infamous question.
