Présentation de l'éditeur :

Combs, Beresford, Burcham, Nicholson, McGrew, Reavis, Bays, McCammon. These are just a few of the surnames that Janet Lynn Combs Kaufman uncovered when she decided to draw up her family tree.

Starting with her parents, Paul Richard Combs and Gloria Lee Beresford, Kaufman thoroughly researched ten generations and now shares her family stories and genealogical process in Ancestral Paths. A valuable reference tool for others interested in learning how to trace their own family trees, it’s also just a good read for anyone captivated by personal histories.

Experience the full richness that genealogy offers by learning how to fully document the individuals in your family tree. Drawing from primary sources such as photographs, death certificates, and letters, the author shares stories of ancestors who farmed in the rural communities of England, Scotland, Wales, and Ireland, including many who immigrated to America prior to the American Revolution, and others who were coal miners and farmers in England, Holland, and Germany.

Knowing where and whom we came from helps us forge stronger connections to the past and better understand who we are now. Let Ancestral Paths lead you on your own genealogical journey today.
