My Genealogy Page


Here are links to my family lines which I have researched and documented. Several of these pages include links to other pages of my genealogy which I will eventually add separate links to. (In progress....)

Y DNA Projects I manage:


Surnames


Daniel

Y DNA research which proved my ancestral paternal line back to my earliest proved Daniel ancestor.

An update to my 1995 book, Thomas Daniel of Colonial Virginia and Eight Generations of His Descendants.

Hostetter

Here is the first chapter of my book on my maternal line, the Hostetter family. Since writing this book, I was able to prove the parentage and origins of Francis Hostetter and that information may currently be found on two peer reviewed genealogy web sites, which means anyone can come along, at any time, and blow it away! That being said, his parentage is proved by deed in York County, PA, a 1749 ship manifest and the marriage of his parents, Christian Hochstadter and Gertrude Vautrin in 1724, recorded in the Protestant church register of Keskastel, Alsace, France. The burial record of Christian's father, Ulrich Hochstadter, is recorded in 1739 in the Protestant parish register of Herbitzheim, Alsace, not far from Keskastel. There are suggestions in primary records that this family came from Switzerland, but that has not been proved.

Burroughs

This is a somewhat large PDF of my work on my Burroughs line. This file is really large because I need to reduce the size of the images in it, which I will someday do, making the file much smaller.

Unfortunately, I had no direct ancestors of age to serve in some wars; Mexican War, Spanish American War,  WWI, WWII. (In progress as I create web pages for these ancestors.)
