I'm interested....OF COURSE!
I want to say that my research is a result of a small project I started to
help teach history to my homeschooled children. Now, I'm absolutely hooked
and LOVE each and every new line I get and share that story with the
children.
Also, as a way to help in the loss of personal Sawyer items that my mother's
step-sister took and sold after my step-grandmother's death, I am building my
line of Sawyers as a tribute to my grandfather's heritage. I feel a deep
loss at those old pictures, papers, and few momentos that were sold in an
estate sale, but the Sawyer legacy can go on as I share each new Sawyer line
and what made my grandfather (and us) who he was (and who we are).
Blessings,
