My great grandfather married my Aunt Ang's mother . My aunt Ang was married to my mom's brother. I was so fascinated as a child when she told me that story. An interesting fact is they were always buried with their first spouse! When my oldest sister passed away in 2001 her ashes were buried by my folks, or rather my dad at the time my mom was still living. When my brother-in-law passed away (both of them way too young) his phamily wanted him buried in Michigan where he was raised but my middle nephew Edward researched military cemeteries and he buried his dad in a full military service. He had serviced 27 years in the U S Army so it was appropriate but my middle sister can not get over it! Although it is an odd arrangement, I am very hopeful they are both resting in peace!Annesphamilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09355786666073982088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6115005019733614660.post-86776144802438597572013-06-28T14:44:20.294-05:002013-06-28T14:44:20.294-05:00Great information.

I don't have any Colonial ancestors—we're rather new to the U.S.—but there's still so much I could learn about my dad's side, which came mainly from French-speaking Canada, and my mom's side, from Norway, Germany, etc. You're posts always inspire me. ☺Danahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16272293468239097754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6115005019733614660.post-42994416219445302252013-06-27T02:30:40.663-05:002013-06-27T02:30:40.663-05:00What wonderful information to have been able to at...What wonderful information to have been able to attain! I was very focused on researching ancestry for awhile, and my favorite parts were the genuine stories I ran across. Though I didn't find any wedding stories, I read of a relative who managed to escape when they forced the Cherokee on the Trail of Tears. I found records of the shop he set up on the Appalachian Trail, a successful business man and a Cherokee. I can't tell you how delighted I was to find that information.<br /><br />Shannon at <a href="http://thewarriormuse.com/" rel="nofollow">The Warrior Muse</a>Shannon Lawrencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00934641808195675935noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6115005019733614660.post-27122592098121737402013-06-26T21:08:03.678-05:002013-06-26T21:08:03.678-05:00Sue this is so amazing to me.
