Notable Cousins & Ancestors

This page was last updated on February 1, 2008

Genealogy or the study of your family history can be educational and very rewarding, but it can also be fun, especially if you understand your relationship to your "Notable Cousins and Ancestors".

Most of the "Notable Cousins" that we have are a result of our "Notable Ancestors"; mainly the Pilgrims that arrived on the ship "Mayflower in 1620.

If you would like to know which "Notables" you may be descended from or if you want to know how you are related to them, please write me!
