I started researching my ancestry in 2009 and found Find A Grave to be a useful tool. A lot of my family roots (on both sides) are in Missouri and Iowa. The paternal side of my family include the surnames of Irvin, Burnside, Singleton, Young, McMullin, and Davis to name a few. The maternal side of my family are numerous in Putnam and Sullivan Counties in Missouri and include the surnames of Alexander, Oylear, Christian, Valentine, Yardley, Rogers, Quigley, Long, and Grindstaff.
