Barbara Cartwright

I became interested in geneaology when I was a child listening to my paternal grandfather, Harris Saxon Mears.When we would go to Georgetown, TX and walk around the square he would tell me I was kin to more people in Williamson County Texas than anyone alive at that time. I always giggled and now I tell my grandson Joseph Dale Cartwright the same thing.My Grandpa made history come alive for me. It is extremely important to know my roots and where I belong.I find geneaology an ongoing education. I always enjoy hearing my elders tell about their life experiences and tales from the past.
