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.

Doyle - at long last

Apparently I haven't republished the Doyle portion of my site since May 2014.  Wow - time flies!  There have been a number of "little" updates since then and a few significant ones:
Now that winter is here, perhaps I'll manage to keep this more up to date.

The several wives of Percy Broder

Thanks to my cousin Elaine Wilson, we have identified Percy Broder's first wife.  She was Kathreen Alice Collier, and like his later wives, she only lasted for a few years before they were divorced.  (Either Percy was very unlucky in his choices or he was impossible to live with.  I know where I'd put my bet!)

I've added Kathreen's information and made a few updates to Melba (Sigsworth) Pappajohn, Percy's second wife.

Hall & West families

It's almost West family reunion day, so I've been frantically updating records - adding details, documents, photos, etc.  There are too many changes to list here; and only the most recent 25 show on the Recent Updates page.  But poke around if there's anyone in particular you're interested in.

WOW - how long since I updated Broders?

Over the past year I have periodically made a change or two to various members of the Broder family.  I never bothered to re-build the site because each set of changes seemed inconsequential at the time.  Suddenly I discovered that the number of changes has really added up and the site hasn't been updated for a year!  So, the changes are now published - but I can't tell you in any detail what they are, because I don't remember!   They are all listed in the Recent Updates though.
