I have been involved in family history for over 50 years since I was about 10 years old. My ancestors were principally located in the following counties: Stokes, Surry, Rockingham, Wilkes, Forsyth and Guilford in NC, and Patrick, Pittsylvania and Halifax in Virginia. Many of them have been in this area since the 1750's. I have loved visiting old graveyards as long as I can remember.

My & my wife's direct lines are as follows:
.....Wilkes Co., NC: Johnson, Hayes, Reid, Riddle, Parks, Brooks, Rose, Sparks, Reynolds, Cleveland
