How fascinating, I know my dear maternal aunt traced her ancestry to a couple that were living in our street, the Westalls, so there's all sorts of folk in the mix, a family can be most extensive, Helen, traced a load of Anglo Saxon warriors that were recruited by the Constantine, (the original centre of the Byzantine empire, that were also in Ukraine, I could loads of relatives there, heh heh, well done Beth, blessings Roy
Typo: Trace their de(s)cent

Thank you for a great review. I seem to enjoy the research and maybe my family will like to have the information. I think it shows a little of what goes into the research and may get others interesting in tracing their own.

Thanks for sharing about this new discovery! I like how you can confirm with the DNA matches. I especially liked " Castle Tucker is a time capsule that echoes with the voices of a remarkable Maine family." I really liked learning the meaning of the "Tucker' occupation.
was the wrong Elisabeth (was the 's' spelling intentional? The others had 'z' in Elizabeth)
One I'd established that fact (Once)

Thank you for the review and your comments. I'm glad you noticed that. I'm bad about putting an "s" in my own name, because I sign checks and documents as Elizabeth instead of Beth. For some reason I don't like z's. It may be why I tell everyone my name is Beth. LOL

Lol. I can see writing z is a bit of a nuisance while writing in cursive. Great info!
