In 1980 Lu Dawn, her sister, mother, daughter and niece traveled by car to Missouri to get a grasp on their
ancestors.
That was a memorable trip and although we were unable to retrieve some of what we were searching for, we
did retrieve a goodly amount of valuable information & data and we had tons of fun doing so.
Lu Dawn began her family genealogy searching endeavors in the late 1970's and continued same through the
early 1980's.
Since then her searches have been few and sporatic. With the death of Mildred, "Momma" in 2004, Lu
Dawn decided to attempt to put everything all together in some sort of organized format.
Back in the 1970's & 1980's aides such as the internet were all just about unheard of.
One had to write actual letters and post them, then wait forever in some cases, for responses.
These were exciting times. Excitement like the feeling of anticipation walking in from the mailbox
reading a letter and repeating the names over and
over -"Susan Dietlou Dutton". She knew that name. She had seen it. She had copied it down.
She had it in a file. Yuppers! She was able to connect this woman to a John Fassett after years of searching by
the letter writer!
It is moments like that, that we ametuer genealogists live for.
It is hoped that your visit to this site is a joyful one, in which you can link to your past and
to ours.
There are so many Surnames for any searcher to consider.
This site intends to address most of these Surnames in one way or another.
