I have decided to start blogging my experience while researching my family tree. When I started in 2000, I had very little info and did not know the maiden name of my maternal great grandmother. Now more than 10 years later, not only have I been able to trace her line back to the 1820's I have also traced my paternal line to an actual slaveowner. While I still need to find a viable male to test the DNA to prove a link to the slave owner, I believe I am on the right track.
I am always open to compare notes for family research and I will provide any tips I can. The family names I am interested in are Lang, Windham, Peyton, Keys, Kerr, Thompson, Ducksworth, Bagohin and Evans.
