Dian's Genealogy Page
Genealogy has become an obsession with me. I have met a lot of very nice and helpful people in doing my research.
I have found a second cousin in Florida, Doug Colbary, via the internet. He has given me a lot of information regarding the Colbary line (my dad's side of the family) and we are working together to nail it down. He also has a website: Switchboard Personal Page
My husband Mike's side of the family has been researched by his step-grandma Barbara Maybury and she has been quite generous in sharing her information with me.
His grandma, Lora Callahan has done a lot (and I mean a lot) of work on her ancestry and has also been very helpful.
On my mom's side of the family I am very grateful to my grandma's cousin, Helen McKinney for all her help.
Currently I am working on:
Mowry/Morey: Rhode Island > Connecticut > New York >Pennsylvania
Collbarry, Colberry, Colbary: Ontario, Canada > New York > California
Wismer: Ontario, Canada
Dicker, Klein: Austria-Hungary > New York

There are so many resources out there on the internet, it would be impossible to list them all, but some people have made some quite exhaustive lists of links. I don't have the time or energy to do that, but here are a few of my favorites:

Good stuff! Some free searches and some good newsletters.
