The 4th (but nearly the 5th) in a line of fellows named Benjamin Wheeler Ady, including my 2nd great and great grandfathers and my grandfather. My dad got skipped. His mom wrote had them write "Benjamin Wheeler Ady" on the birth certificate, but when his dad found out he made them cross it out and name him just "Ben Ady", saying "It's too hard to spell". =)

I've been doing a bit of genealogy off and on for a number of years now. Many thanks to the lovely folks who have filled photo requests and who have taken photos of my various ancestors. All my Benjamin Wheeler Ady ancestors were born in the Baltimore Maryland area, but I ended up in Melbourne, Australia, very nearly on the exact opposite side of the planet, having married a lovely Australian lady.

Feel free to email me with any queries.
