I HAVE SEARCHED FOR OVER FOUR YEARS TO FIND MY FATHERS FAMILY ROOTS. UPON PURE DETERMINATION AND UN-RELENTING LETTER WRITING TO MY ONLY SURVING UNCLED ON DADS SIDE, I RECIEVED OUR FATHERS FAMILY HISTORY INDEX COMPILED IN 1991 BY A COUSIN. WE NEVER KNEW OUR FATHERS FAMILY AND NOW I HAVE DISCOVERD FAMILY WE NEVER KNEW IWE HAD LIVING IN THE STATE OF WASHINGTON. IT IS SO NICE TO FINALLY KNOW OUR FATHERS FAMILY. A WHOLE NEW EXTENSION OF AUNTS, UNCLES, COUSINS HAS OPENNED UP TO US. OUR GREAT GRANDPARENTS WERE MARTIN WEIKEL BORN: SEPT.1836 PENNSYLVANIA HICKORY POINT TOWN SHIP & WIFE: MARGARET LAURISH BORN: DEC. 1843 PENNSYLVANIA. THIS IS FAR AS WE HAVE GOTTEN TO DATE. BUT AT LEAST NOW WE HAVE A START THANKS TO DETERMINATION. GLORIA
