I live in SW Ohio. I have been tracing my family tree for over 25 years. I am so happy that now there is the internet to use to trace my family trees. As well as DNA. My mother was a Smith and so was my dad...I am full blooded Smith!
My names are:
Kentucky: Smith, Spencer, Mynhier, Benson, Montgomery, Turner,
West Virgina/Virginia: Smith, Yoak/Yoke/ Right/Wright, Layman, Stepp, Ward,

Just a tip..If your family is from a state that was neutral in the Civil War like mine. People changed the spelling so not to be associated with a family member if thier loyalties was to the opposite side.... Drop me a line, I love to talk family trees.
