Genealogy Research Notes


This is a dumping ground for personal notes.  It is not complete; for example, we do not have all of George L. Wannall's notes catalogued yet.  As we organize our data, we will make additions, corrections, and deletions.  In the meantime, please let us know if you can elaborate on any of this stuff, or if you can add stuff.  And feel free to become a volunteer research team member by contacting us at mail@wannall.com.

Here's what I'm doing here.  The Resource column contains the source of the Name and Information Provided in the right two columns.  A complete list of the resources is provided at the bottom of the page below the footnotes area.  The Possible Index is my way of trying to link each piece of data into the Wannall.com Index of Names.
