Book Excerpt

Long ago there were story tellers in villages, towns and the wilderness sitting under shade trees and in front of fireplaces, telling and retelling the history of the people of the community. The little children would be the most fascinated listener's, wanting to hear the stories of long ago.They loved best the stories of their Mothers, Fathers and Grandparents. Those story-tellers of long ago, are almost gone now. Let us give our children the feelings of belonging, and warmth, which come from hearing the stories of their parent's and the histories of their lives through these pages of their roots.

 

About the Author

Lois and Chelsea Reimers

Lois Reimers’ grandmother Carey first piqued her interest in genealogy in 1947, shortly after WWII ended and Lois was out of the army. Lois’s grandmother asked her to document her life on an Indian reservation in South Dakota, and told her that the family had a connection with the Fullers from the Mayflower, which led to Lois’s quest to uncover more of her family’s history. Lois’s daughter-in-law, Chelsea Reimers, helped with the production of this book; she wanted her three sons and three granddaughters to know their ancestry as well.
