Putting the Puzzle Together


Genealogy has been an enjoyable and at times a frustrating hobby of mine for quite some time.
My family came to this area of Michigan somewhere around statehood. They came right to Lenawee County from Ireland. The problem is they had a pretty common last name, the courthouse and the Catholic Church they belonged to burned . This is the frustrating part.
My sister Helen was the person that first got me interested in this people puzzle. It was too bad that we started it after my Grandparents had passed away. If only..... This should serve as a lesson to those of you who still have Grandparents around, as well as Aunts and Uncles. Don't wait, ask for their information now!!
