I started geneaolgy when I was 19 at our Ferris reunion, thanks to my grandmother
Adah Ferris Deal so it's her fault I became addicted for 40 years, it's definitely a lifetime hobby. I am 6th generation in Oregon from five early families on the Oregon Trail: Hall, Dodson, Wilson, Deakin, Rexford and Deal. I have printed books on all families I have researched over the years all of which have been filmed by Family Search in Salt Lake City and are available in their digital collection on FamilySearch.com/author/JoyLehmann
and can be downloaded.
