Resuming Surname Saturday Daily Theme

 

Resuming Surname Saturday Daily Theme


My last Surname Saturday post was on 3 May 2014. It is time to resume this writing tradition.

Ruth Thomas and Glenn Bolger - married 8 May 1934

For at least the next 16 weeks, I will be posting on the Surnames in the family tree of my late wife, Nancy (Bolger) Smith. We’ve lived and posted many individual stories here of these families, mostly as we traveled to family history research at their home communities over the years. She did a great job of gathering and collecting information over the years, but we always each kept our own records. You likely noticed I’ve already started to post some new material under the Bolger-Thomas-Smith-Kinnick connection theme. This will formalize that a little more. Here we list the surname of the Round of 16, through 2nd Great Grandparents to get us started and to use as an anchor. Later on, we’ll post a few more, I’m sure.

Parents - Glenn Bolger and Ruth (Thomas) Bolger

Grandparents Surnames added: Wilson and Weaver

Great Grandparents added:

Dolan, Yager, Offill, Lynk

2nd Great Grandparents added:

Dolan (different?), Hartman, Dockstader, Dickey, Walters, Adkins, Tyler, Steel

 

Families are Forever! ;-)
