Please visit at your own risk. Better yet, please access the new message board. I will be restricting access to this site for a while so I can work on a long overdue upgrade of the site. I'm already about two years behind. Life has a way of getting in the way of our hobbies, doesn't it cousins? I'll fix mistakes people have kindly pointed out to me. I'm not a good typist, for one thing. I've got to correct a lot of misspellings. I apologize for not getting back to those of you who have e-mailed me. As everyone can appreciate, I don't devote as much time as I would like to genealogy and this web site. Hopefully, in 2005 I'll be able to do more. Thank you, cousins, for your continuing interest and contributions. I'll see you again soon! Roger I was delighted to get this photo of W. W, Dowd recently. Willis Wedworth was the author of the 1885 genealogy of the Douds. ( The Descendants of Henry Doude Who Came from England in 1639 ) He was also my Great Grandfather.
Old Willis did a remarkable job in his day, before public records were readily available. He did make a lot of mistakes in his genealogy book, however. In that respect, I want to make sure I don't emulate him. |
