Silas was a very studious boy

I am finally retired and able to research families nearly fulltime, a lifetime passion of mine. I have hundred of documents, letters and family records collected for 50+ years.
My birth family name was Townsend, and we arrived in America before the Mayflower, so research was less complicated. I also have extensive records for Buchan, Chatfield, Haushalter, Brandemuehl, Moeller, Kronz, Stroud, and Rotter. In just one year I photographed more than 8,000 headstones, in an effort to help others find family members.
