About Me
:
I am a member of Daughters of the American Revolution, the Jamestowne Society,
Descendants of the Signers of the Declaration of Independence, the National
Huguenot Society, and the Colonial Dames of the 17th Century. I just love
researching family histories. I taught Jr. High English in the public schools
for fourteen years. I am currently an Elementary Counselor and an Elementary
Librarian.
I am compiling a book about the people of Licking, MO, and
would love your contributions. I would like photos,
obits, documents, census records, or stories about the families who have
lived in the area. Anything sent should be copies only, as I will
not be able to return them. Basically, I want anything that will keep the
memories of these people alive for their descendants. I would like to know
physical descriptions, occupations, military experience and honors, religion,
children, ancestors, etc. I want these people to really be "Gone but not
Forgotten." If you have documented your information with sources, I would
like to be able to include that also.
My plan is to compile the first volume around the people buried in the
Licking City Cemetery and their families. If all goes well, volume
two will center around the people buried in the Boone Creek Cemetery.
I am posting the names of the individuals I am currently researching
at the www.findagrave.com
website. Just do a search for the Licking Cemetery and you will be
able to see the names. I am posting these a few at a time, so check
back often.
Please contact me for more details about this project.
