I was born and raised in the Three Oaks, Michigan area in 1946 and have lived there for all of my life except about 3 years. I have extensive recorded family history on most of my ancestors and have a definite interest and desire to add as much information to their histories as I have access to, for the benefit of future generations. Please feel free to ask questions about any of the sources I have gleaned information from. My ancestors kept a plethora of paperwork and I have been sorting papers from 100 years worth of family history and will continue sorting and posting info as I come across it. Family surnames I research are: Martin, Hellenga, Sheeley, Landis, Scheevel, Prinsen, Mangold, Martell, Lozmack, Bandstra. Thank you...

Please note: If you ask me to change, add or delete info, please provide a source, otherwise I can spend hours researching to verify. In return, I try to provide sources when I post anything to your pages. Thanks so much!!!

Famous Connections: Emily Dickinson is my 6th cousin twice removed, Benjamin Franklin is my 6th cousin eight times removed, Winston Churchill is my 9th cousin.
