I was born in Connellsville Fayette County Pennsylvania Oct 4,1935 to Harry E & Elva K(Lytle)Brierly. There were six of us, four boys and two girls. surviving are two boys and one girl.
After over 150 years of Brierly's in Fayette Co the family has about run it's race.My younger brother lives in Maryland and I am in Florida.
The base families in the Brierly line are Lytle,Trump,Bird,Burd,Byrd and a host of others.
I started with 25 names in 1995 and now am over 2900.
After 3 Years in the USMarines and 20 in the USAF
I retired with the thoughts of enjoying a life of leisure.In 1984 (after 5 years of motorcycling all over the US ,I settled down to a full time effort of finding my roots.Not only in Pennsylvania,but Ohio,West Virginia and many more states.What a trip this has been. And it is realy not over yet.
