My name is Michelle. I have been casually researching my family history for over 10 years. I am mainly looking for some help with a huge brick wall that no one in my family has been able to break through yet. If you think you can help please contact me for more information. Thanks.

Michelle  I'm not sure if I can help or not, but tell me what the problem is and I'll see what I can do.

I live in Germany currently, very interested in the genetics of family DNA and gene recombination, family inheritance, etc. Am on Ancestry.com if any one needs a look up. I have done my genetics to see what is actually in my DNA now I need to finish it off by getting the paper trail together so it all makes sense. Origionally from Detroit. Glad to be here!

Hello,

I just started searching my family this year. The passing of my father helped spur me on. My family on my fathers side comes from Breckinridge Co. Ky. Elders, Beavins, Gedlings and Walkers.

 

My quest is to find a photo of my Grandfather, Paul Eugene Elder Born 1899 in Breckinridge Co. KY and died in 1950 in Cannelton Indiana.

Ed I googled  Paul Eugene Elder and right at the top there names came up 1 is a group sheet, so check around and see what you can find.

 All the best

 Kathleen
