I have been looking into our family history on and off. Retired last year and have begun looking around again. Thank you for sharing this site! I have been in contact with Sandi Sullivan and the Sullivan Burgess website. Great amounts of information. Having fun digging and finding little bits of information that add to the story of our family as the pioneers that they were!

My Father was Charles Ralph Brader 1933-2011, Schnecksville, PA. Grandfather Elwood Reuben Brader 1913-1974, Great Grandfather Ralph Llewellyn James Brader, Great Grandfather Harvey Brader - that is where the trail goes cold.

I do appreciate all the work involved in this site. It’s so interesting to just scroll through and see all the family history. I have some updates, I will email.

Thank You!

Whoever did all this work, I can't thank you enough. I wasn't sure which branch of the Gressels/Gressleys/Kressleys etc my family fell from, but you clarified it for me. Apparently, I am from the same lineage as Janet White.
I do have some corrections to the later generations if anyone is interested.
Thanks again!

Enjoyed following Lange/schmaltz line. Very thorough. I am son of Ralph Warren schmaltz and grandson of Julius Ernest schmaltz. I can supply my children’s dates and their children dates if you wish.

My name is Bobby Ray Martin a direct descendant of James Nathaniel Martin (5), Dennis Lee Martin (4), Thomas Martin (3), John J Martin (2), Richard Pleasant Martin (1) Aubey E. Martin (GF), Douglas Winfred Martin (F).
I have been studying the family lineage for several years and find this accounting accurate and informative. It's very difficult to spin a family web and you have done a masterful job.
Thank you

Just a note to indicate that Eliza Ann Maxwell (in the Flood lineage) was wife of John McKee, she died a few year after have married John McKee and had a son by the name William. After her death, John McKee married Sarah Hall and had 2 more children : Samuel and Margaret.

Stumbled upon this page on accident while researching my family. This project is amazing, thank you for sharing :)

I have additional information about Robert M. Kressley - my great-grandfather - who was the son of James F. Kressley. Your site shows that Robert only had on child - Elizabeth. Robert also had a son named Robert James Kressley, my grandfather, who was born in 1910. I have information on him and his lineage if you are interested. If you are please email me at "kresa5@comcast.net" and I will send it to you.

The Floods were living in the part of Hemmingford that became Havelock, by the division of Hemmingford in half. Andrew Flood and Graham Douglas were living in front of the farm where I live. Graham's father was living where we live now. Guillaume from Québec.

I have additional information for your geneology. I am Georgia Lynn Buckner, now Nicholson. My grandmother was Lois M. Brader (105). My father was George B. Buckner (118.i.i.). My uncle was Joseph David Buckner (117 i.). I have information to contribute and correct the family tree. I will email. Feel free to contact me.

It has been sometime since I have looked at your genealogy pages, but am back once again. Was really disappointed to not being able to get into the Kressley line when I hit on the crest. Perhaps you are still working on it and will try again later since I have once again found your website.

Thanks to everyone who worked on these amazing entries.

Was forwarded this link and wanted to join in the fun. Tom Kressley from Indiana now living in Texas. Parents live in New Port Richey, FL (Tom and Jeanne)

directed here by find-a-grave entry for Hendrick Martensen van Copenhagen Wiltse, who would be my 10th great-grandfather.
I see the WILTS entry and coat of arms on your linkages page, but there is no URL link associated with it, like there is for other family names on that page.

I descend from Owen's son Andrew Meehan and Mary Margaret Campbell -&rt;Jane "Jennie" Meehan VanSlyke-&rt; Lillian VanSlyke Murray-&rt;Mary Jane "Jennie" Murray Bzoskie was my grandmother. Would love to hear from descendants of the brothers especially if they've taken a DNA test. Would like to compare results and notes.

The new website is a braw effort. Thank you for what you ha'e accomplished. Your update finally provided me with the previously elusive Scottish connection. I've emailed you with a photograph showing four generations of my White-Fraid-Young-Stewart grandmothers. I enjoyed the privilege of visiting my Grandmother Lillian Fraid-Browne-Seidl-Swaningson as well as my Great-Grandmother Madeline White-Fraid though the early years of my active service. Your genealogical research has buoyed me for more than a decade. Thank you.

I am researching my family tree - my great great grandfather was David Madill b 1808 in Ireland, married Jane Hamill. I can't trace the family back further than David - do you have any earlier information? I have heard "rumours" that the Madills, although they did spend quite some time in Ireland, are from somewhere else originally, perhaps northern England, France, or eastern Europe. I have used your Madill Family History Page, then dated 2012, that my son Matthew noticed after it was mentioned in the Kitchener-Waterloo Record (newspaper), and have found it invaluable, I have input the information from it into my Ancestry Family Tree.

Nice and interesting to read your pages! Google led me to your websites. I have several relatives in Northern Michigan, in the Saginaw-area. The origine of my family is located in Hassendorf and Worth between Hamburg and Bremen. Later they went to Freiburg (Elbe) and Glueckstadt (Elbe).
We have a coat if arms too - but diffently from yours. There a no common family members in our family.

I really enjoyed your website. I have additional lineage information on the Kressley family, the lineage on Bernard Kressley. If you are interested I can provide that information.

I have been sitting on this for such a long time as I was working on two NY lines. Now I am turning my attention to my PA lines and Brader is one of them. I am a direct descendant of Thomas and Mary Brader. I have narrowed Thomas' father to being most likely either George or Henry Brader. I think it is most likely that it is George because of the lack of number of children in general and the fact that the census year after George dies, an old woman is living with the newly found Thomas in the same city. I think it is likely that Thomas married and lived with his parents and his father then died and so he became head of the household. I am still unraveling it all but wanted to thank you for putting up such a helpful website.
