A chapter in the book Pioneers of My People
Prologue: Pioneers of My People
by BethShelby
Prologue: Pioneer of My People
My Interest in genealogy has prompted me to want to preserve as much as I can about those people of bygone eras whose DNA flows through my veins.
This book will contain, not only stories about those people whom I only know about from what I’ve been told, but also those I knew personally during the years when I was growing up. I find it alarming that we can live our lives out on this earth, and unless we achieve something notable, our memory only lasts until those who knew us best have passed from the scene.
I hope those of my family and others who have an interest the history of how the people lived in the early days of America and what might have prompted them to leave Europe and take the long journey to a new land might find this book worth reading.
