For: The Family

From: Judy Breck

Several years ago I made a pun on DNA and created a printed Deck of Noteworthy Ancestors. This website will be my means of moving the DNA project on to the Internet.

Although I have worked on our family records and pictures quite a bit, several family members who came before me are responsible for the existence of the materials that I will be placing into this website. Each of these folks would have been a superb webmaster.

CREDITS

Ruth S. Breck for her first entry in her book of family facts made 1861 and her last made in 1920.

Milo Roblee for the Pond's Extract advertisement with the drawing of American Revolutionary soldier uniforms.

Elizabeth Starkweather Breck for the best chart, which is shown below. Though hard to read as reproduced here, you can get the idea. At right are Elizabeth and her husband Aaron Breck, grandparents of Louis William Breck, husband of Julia North Breck. Stretching to the left are the ancestors of Elizabeth and Aaron. Most of the people at the far left are first generation New Englanders who arrived in America before 1650. This chart gives only the ancestors of Louis William Breck's father. These pages will include parallel records for his mother and for Julia North's father and mother. All four lineages go back to the 1600s in America and include, together, at least ten soldiers of the American Revolution.

Olive Roblee Breck for never cleaning out her basement.

Alma North Ferguson for never cleaning out her attic.

Louis William Breck for finding and buying books.

Julia North Breck for writing names on pictures.
