This blog will reflect the progress of my genealogy project(s). I will describe any major changes that I make on my website www.fayewest.ca and I will document how I solved some brick walls.

More Graves updates

There seems to be no end!   I've added a few more details and changed some formatting to make the obituaries easier to read.  Check the Recent Updates page on the Striker site to see who has been updated.  Some of these changes will also appear on the Broder site

Still more obits and tombstones

There's such a wealth of data out there!  I spent today adding obituaries (and the data they contain) and tombstone photos to many of my Graves & Broder ancestors.  The vast majority of them can be found on the Recent Updates page of the Graves/Striker site.

I found additional information on Harold, his wife Mabel Hallberg, and their son Ernest Lloyd Broder.  The new details have been added to the Broder and Striker sections.

Joseph Driggs

Richard W Davis has published a proof that Joseph Driggs (c1686-1748) was actually Jose Rodrigues a native of Portugal, probably the Azores Islands.  His research is documented at http://genforum.com/driggs/messages/193.html  and http://genforum.com/driggs/messages/194.html.  I have added this information to the site.
