When starting and researching this Ancestry, a format  similar to this Person Definitions was used  to capture some of the initial pertinent Ancestry and biographical information for many of the people researched. The information sources were  known or oral history  or researched on the Internet . Those  Person Definitions were used as a  research  tool for gathering data. Only the  Person Definitions for these six people were significantly expanded and maintained.
