SoCal resident.
Currently researching my paternal line:
Bamber, Fisher, Bates, Peck, Bishop
with connections to the founding families of Stamford & Greenwich, CT.

and maternal line:
Northey, Zahnow, Zander, Jansa, Ziska
with connections to Cornwall, England and Bohemia (Germany and Czech Repub)

I've realized in the process that there are very few reminders of our past that remain. People move houses, sell or give away their possessions, and I have almost nothing to remember my ancestors. So at least the grave site remains in one place and cared for!
