I have been researching family ancestors for the past nine years. The information I had was limited at best. Along with Ancestor.com and Find-A-Grave, I have found a significant number of ancestors and their stories.

Many settled in the Philadelphia area from Germany, Italy and Ireland/England and then settled in various Pennsylvania suburbs, Southern New Jersey, Florida, North Carolina, and a few mid-western states.

Some of the names included in my search are Feeney, Bickel, Blumer, Gaul, Ghaul, Yocum, Donehower, Chambers, Fraley, Mitchell, Risley, Wilson, Peters, Brady, Meehan, Beaumont, Ackerman, McClatchy, Busch, Fessler, Patterson, Wallace, Cassidy, Gormley, Lauria, Divine, Mahoney, Dehart, Dolan, Gallagher, Murphy, McDade, Stengel, Spraggins, Noyce, McCarthy, Gilligan, Roam, Dougherty, Pavek, Bennett, Lyons, Hoffmann, Haslam, Buchler, Fow, Schueneman, Bennett, Kauffmann, Fessler, Maurer, Saylor, Ackerman, Scheer, Busch, Lehmkuhl, Staley, Applegate, Paxton, Barnes, Barraclough, Gostel, Popowski, and Trainor to name a few.

In some case I have found extended family members 2nd and 3rd -> cousins, aunts, uncles, and grandparents.

I believe every grave site should have a story or a piece of information to go with the name of the person who has passed. We need to remember and honor them always. No one should be forgotten.
