Introduction

The metaphor for Reunion Family pages is a stack of *Cards. One card per family. Navigate with the person name links. Direct lines will have an asterisk (not provided yet) as a navigation guide. Multiple spouses or parents are indicated by the small numbers (the current family number will not be shown as a link - active links are underlined by most browsers.) Photos and notes are included in many cases. (Go on to the Family Cards,)

Individuals born since the 1920 Census have been omitted unless they provide continuity for the various branches of the family. In these cases, the surnames, but no details are shown. Space does not permit a complete listing so only direct lines and individuals of interest have been included. For more information on the lines currently being researched see Family Names.

Please Note: is the text runing over pictures or other text on these pages? For reasons not yet clear, there may be overly large empty spaces between paragraphs or the text may run over areas following it. I am in the process of fixing the problem. Please check your browers settings... try resetting your text display to Normal. (If you happen to be a web guru and know a reliable fix, please email the webmistress.)

Information found on this site is more recent than both Ancestry GEDCOM files. If you have information or questions about specific individuals, please contact me SandraRagan@PlumDigital.com
		The group shot below was taken about 1908 in front of the Henry James Foley family home in Kane, PA. Some family mambers are in the Erie, PA area. Two lines are in California. The members of at least two lines are in Florida. We are looking for missing family members, so please contact me if you have additional information. Photo information in Family Cards. (from what I know, I would guess that the ex-Florida Congressman is a relation... he never responded to MY email prior to the recent expose! But no one in this part of the family endoreses his destructive, selfish behavior.)

a note on some of the conventions used herein (also located in the Surnames Index):

Surnames are in all caps. Place references (i.e., John of Aragon) and surnames that are patronymics (i.e., JOHNSON, and JAHNSDOTTER) are shown as subtitles, to lessen confusion with established lines of "proper" surnames. Spelling varies from source to source on known people. Names with multiple common spellings are noted and grouped together. Where the name is not known, the spouses name is used in square brackets - Ann [CAPITO], and known married names appear in parens - Ann (WILLIAMS) [CAPITO].

Surnames: What's in a Name? * Name Origins & Meanings * Broken Arrow Publishing Approximate dating is often necessary to establish time frames; if the speculation is within a couple years, the term "about" is used. If the time frame is within a longer period of time, the term "circa" is used.

When other determining information is lacking, wives are considered to be the same age or slightly younger than their husbands, marriage dates default to a period approximately 20 years after birth of the younger individual, and children after that time at approximate one year intervals. There are frequent exceptions as women were frequently treated as property or the "coin of the realm." Widows of both sexes commonly remarried to nearest available person to gain or retain property rights and financial support. Known cases of this, children born after the death of a father, child brides, common law relationships and "out of wedlock" children are annotated were appropriate. An attempt has been made to use the proper titles for the time and language when indicating matrimonial arrangements (Mrs., Lady, Doña, etc.). Known concubines and other relationships are noted.

The 60th Anniversary presetation for mom & Dad. Please note, there is no status indicator while the files are loading. Colors are adjusted for standard NTSC TV display. They will be somewhat darker and less saturated on computer monitors.

Here is the 20 meg Quicktime Littell Family Tree, jpeg chart and the 30 meg Quicktime presentation for Bill's 80th birthday in Yosemite. It will take awhile for the files to load (no status indicators). Both have chapter markers that you can use to navigate the videos and Volume controls.
