I have been very interested in my family tree ever since I was 16 years old, a  high school project is what got me started. Now, I am 28 and I have accumulated almost 4,000 names, and I am still not finished, of course I probably never will be. I  find more and more every day, and its always exciting to find new information,  especially the family stories and pictures. I eventually want to print all this out  on paper, and share it with my family, but I first have to get it better organized.   I am still at a brick wall with some of it though, as I have been for quite a  few years now, but I hope to break through it and find some new and exciting  information. I only just very recently been able to work on the Pattersons because I  had been at a stand still for so long, but I finally broke through that brick wall  which is always awesome. I hope you find what you are looking for in my family tree,  and if you have anything you would like to see changed or added, just let me know, I will research  it, and if need be, I will change it. Also, if you have any questions, I would be glad to  make an effort to answer them. If any of you can offer any help with John (Uncle  Jackie) Berry B: 1794 in Kentucky D: 1898 in Missouri, I still have yet to find his  parents, all I know is his mother's first name and the fact that she was born in  Germany and when and where his parents were married. If you look him up on my site,  there are a couple pictures that I have of him, that rocking chair that he is sitting  in, apparently still exists today, one of his other descendants has it in their  possession. Like I said, if anyone can help me out with any information on this man,  I would so very much appreciate it, and I would gladly help out in any way that I can  with yours as well. I hope you enjoy your walk through my family history.
