My regular links have been added to: Genealogical
Links.
"Where do I start?" is a page that I've written with the help of my good
friend Michael Gilliland. It covers the most basic steps of beginning
your research and the "how to" of running a genealogical
program.
Exporting
Gedcoms and Importing
Gedcoms are other "how to" pages but deal exclusively
with Family Tree Maker software.
The
Membership Directory is where you can search some of our
members' lineages and email them directly if you suspect a connection.
Ancestral
Photos is a page with photographs of some members' and my
ancestors. Brief lineages are included.
Heraldry
is a page with downloadable Coat of Arms graphics for various
Forrest individuals.
 
Read the 'Forrest
Lineage' by Mrs. Annie Sue Idol. This manuscript, (although
it contains some inaccuracies) began my odyssey into researching
my family. It details the arrival of six Irish brothers to West
Jersey in the mid 1600's and traces two distinct lines, my own
in Chester County, Pennsylvania, and that of a southern line
from PA. to N. Carolina, to Tennessee, Missouri and beyond.
