Mary Beth sent me your website and I just finished reading it. How wonderful that you did the research into your family history on-line. Several years ago I was interested in my family geneaology and spent alot of hours in the Nat'l Archives. It got tiring looking through all the microfiche. Now that you mentioned internet research as a source, I just might start looking into the genealogy again. Great job! <em>Mary Ann, I'm so glad that you enjoyed the post, and I'm even MORE glad that you may resume your family genealogy hunt. I hadn't done too much hunting about my own family history in the past, but really enjoyed the research, and may decide to get more into it myself. You may already know about the various services available online, but if you don't, check out <a href="http://www.genealogy.com/" rel="nofollow">www.genealogy.com</a>, which has a lot of resources and databases that it's linked into (although it will cost you a bit of $$ to use). Good luck! And I'd love to hear what you find out! --Melissa</em> Melissa,

Great job!

Mary Ann,
I’m so glad that you enjoyed the post, and I’m even MORE glad that you may resume your family genealogy hunt. I hadn’t done too much hunting about my own family history in the past, but really enjoyed the research, and may decide to get more into it myself. You may already know about the various services available online, but if you don’t, check out http://www.genealogy.com, which has a lot of resources and databases that it’s linked into (although it will cost you a bit of $$ to use). Good luck! And I’d love to hear what you find out! –Melissa

Grandma would be so pleased. xoxo Melissa - I loved that you did this research and am anxious to hear anything additional that you learn about the Jennings. Grandma would be so pleased.
