Limited Genealog The   family   genealogy   displayed   below   includes   the   names   of   known   relatives   and   verified   family   connections,   spanning   a   few   generations. Based   on   fragmented   oral   information   from   relatives,   we   believe   there   may   be   additional   family   connections   extending   further   back   in   time. While   we   have   some   preliminary   information,   we   consider   it   anecdotal   until   we   can   locate   credible   documentation   to   confirm   these   connections. The spelling of foreign names has been Anglicized to preserve their phonetic pronunciation.
