I said I wouldn't do it, but I did!

  When I first started researching the family trees, I regularly used ancestry.com, but one of the things I noticed with frequency was the amount of repeated misinformation in the public member trees.  Apparently, people copied the information from other public member trees without checking the validity.
   Yesterday, I came across some more misinformation, and I saw red. At that point I decided to develop a public tree with the correct facts. It won't be it a quick project, but the work will worth it in the long run.
    My luck, people will want to challenge my findings rather than copy it.

Do your ears hang low....

  I just love old photographs. It doesn't matter whether I know them or not.  In this case I do know the family.
  When my cousin, Windie, first looked at this photo, she burst into laughter over the Westmoreland ears.  Upon closer inspection, I realized she was right.  Everyone of the men had well defined ears.  I'm not sure, but  I bet the sister in the center wore her hair longer on the sides to cover her ears.
   For fyi, the father of this brood is the second man from the left on the top row.
