I have been working on my family history since I lost my mother in 2008. My father shared family names and a few stories before he past in 2004. Since that time I have discovered several cousins who live in many states - from Washington to Florida. I am writing a book to be passed on to my great-grandson so that he may know and understand about his history.

Some of the families include: Rowan, Mandeville, Odle, Odell, Crance, Makemson, Newell, Johnson, Hahn (Honn), Nagel, Gangloff, Buysse, Van De Voorde, Van Ooteghem
