Stories and history of my Mother's family, from their immigration to these shores in 1685 to the present. Many stories told by the people who lived them. Includes stories from the Pony Express, the Civil War, WWII, and Vietnam. Much of the history is documented by writers who lived prior to me and I have tried to identify sources for stories written by them.This book may be a valuable resource for family members and of interest to the casual reader as well.

Sometimes funny and sometimes heartbreakingly sad, this book documents the journey of a small boy, dreaming of becoming a pilot, to a man who flew jet aircraft in many parts of the world. His journey took many turns along the way, but this young boy grew into a man, never losing sight of his dream, even as the reality of life interfered, interrupted and delayed reaching the goal. Travel along as the young man serves his country in the US Air Force, marries and starts a family, and finally begins to pursue his dream, finding success in a manner familiar to many who believe in dedication and hard work. The adventures and misadventures along the way are told in a clear, down to earth manner, and ends with encouragement for a person who dreams of a particular goal in their life, to never give up the quest.
