ladies, our grandmothers, who married into those lines.
Be sure you have as much information as possible on these ladies as it will
be of great
assistance while tracing down your correct male line plus adding some
outstanding families
that you may not be aware of. Information on these wives will be needed to
prove you have
the correct connections.
This is extremely important when you are sea

Hello Everyone:
Those of you who are working on your lines back to your 1600s American
Ancestors will find the1600s Ancestors Data Base to be of great help.
My recent postings to the Data Base has taken it to over 26,500 Ancestors
who have descendants living today.
I have also added several National Societies who have proven many
of these Ancestors. Also at this time a few new respected Reference
works that contain thousands of sources including some of the early
colonists who have Royal Blood lines.
