CHER THE BEAR

My family research project started many years ago, however it has been the past three years that I have given it 100 percent. I was always curious as a young girl about my family and who they were. This curiosity has only grown as I get older (not that I am old).

My ancestry is an important part of who I am weather it be by genetics or by traits, this is why I am hooked . The amount of new family I have found is a thrill and unimaginable. For this I have great enthusiasm to continue my quest of discovering my past heritage, hoping my children can appreciate this as they get older.

I would like to personally thank the many researchers that I have come into contact with that have guided me into gaining successful family files. Also, to the many new cousins I have met on my journey. You are all a great bunch of people I have enjoyed meeting. My heartfelt thanks to all of you al!

Shirley Snider-Tapley- Mckim (My Gramma's Friend) Faye Hood, Eileen Syiver, Ruby Barnett (Bates),

Rosemary Phelps and Sean McGuiness (Searls/Searles) and most of all, my Gramma who made me the keeper of the very old family pictures.

Lastly, but the most important, my parents, Budd Brazier and Carolyn Haight. Without them sharing all the family stories and interesting facts I would have been at lost. Also, the too many numerous persons I have not mentioned- this rose if for you all!
