May 9 (1) FYI: Google Maps Missing on IE. The latest versions of Internet Explorer do not display some Google maps. In time, Microsoft probably will fix this problem. The free Firefox browser will display these maps properly.

Mar 19 Update: Jacob and Judith Gaiser. Their burial sites have been found at the Bethlehem Cemetery near Cicero, IN, just where Uncle Floyd said they were!

Mar 1 New: Catlin Maps. Two historical maps from the records of the Catlin Mennonite Church (1886-1962) of Peabody, KS show where members of the congregation lived. Feb 9 New: 2010 Photos. The photos and notes from my travels in 2010 in Texas, Kansas, and Pennsylvania are now available.

Jan 14 New: Jacob Good (GC2) Homestead Deeds. These are digital copies of two of the original deeds.

- 1764 Homestead Patent. This is the original patent issued by the sons of William Penn to Jacob for his homestead of 658 acres on Muddy Creek. The patent is signed by John Penn and carries the Penn family seal.

- 1766 Father to Son Inheritance. Parents Jacob and Susannah Good grant half of their homestead to their son Jacob Good (GC22). This deed confirms the names of parents Jacob and Susannah and their two sons Peter and Jacob. The deed is signed by both Jacob the father and Jacob the son.
