There are many other surnames in our extended family, added through marriages, divorces, and adoptions. We both have lots of Smiths in the family, the two branches unrelated as far as we can tell. This website is not a definitive list of relatives and there are probably many mistakes in dates and places. We both love old family photographs so you’ll see more photos than usual for a genealogy website. If you think you might be related to us, would like more information about a person mentioned here, or would like us to link to your website please email us at pamruss@frii.com and we’ll get back to you. We hope to add narative to the pages, excerpts from diaries and memoirs or articles from old newspapers. This is a work in progress.
