You can read about "Surname Saturday" at GeneaBloggers - lots of other good information there, as well.
Following is my entry, from the first couple of decades of the 1880s, Guernsey Co, Ohio:
"Jacob Swineheart and Joseph Swineheart were brothers who married
sisters Sarah and Elizabeth Zimmerman.
It is the fifteen children of these two marriages that adopted the surname
Schwyhart as young adults.
I wonder why?"
For more information on this family, see:
http://homepages.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~earlyyrs/schwyhart.html
One of the fifteen children was my 3rd great-grandmother.
Comments welcomed. See other entries at: Genea-Musings
Families are Forever! ;-)
This Blog focuses on Ancestor Stories, both the stories themselves about my family’s ancestors and discussions of where they come from and how to prepare and share them. These stories may be non-fiction or fiction – we will always tell which is which, of course. Also see my KINNICK blog and The HOMEPLACE Series Blog, left sidebar, scroll down.
