A Few Hints: Use the Site map to go from web page to web page. Use "Find" ("control" key plus "F" key) to get a window in which you can type a word or number that you want your computer to find for you on a web page. Highlight a part of a web page and use the "selection" option in print window (select "File" at the top left of the screen and then select "Print") to print the highlighted part of the web page. Most of the pages on this web site contain historical information about the development of the families of the people of the United States of America. No one person can claim credit for all of the research which has been required to collect the data which I have analyzed and am disseminating on this web site. Other than my personal research, inherited information which my parents researched, and sometimes information from the books of the Sigler Family Organization edited by Robert Howard Sigler and Gregory L. Watson, I have given credit for my sources. If an author does not give credit to his or her sources then the author not only takes credit for the source's correct information but also for the source's mistakes. That would be unfair to both the source and the author. This is our history and is meant to be read and disseminated by anyone who desires to do so. However, if material from this web site is copied, printed, and/or published on other web sites, in books, or in research papers it would be very much appreciated if I and this web site were given credit as being the most immediate source for the material. A link to this web site would also be appreciated.

I rarely take time to sit down and read a book "from cover to cover", but I found one on the bargain book rack outside a bookstore in Germantown (east of Memphis, Tennessee) that caught my eye. The title of the book is Where Wizards Stay Up Late....The origins of the Internet. The authors are a husband-wife team Katie Hafner and Matthew Lyon. The publisher is Simopn and Schuster and the ISBN is 0-6-684-81201-0. The following is a few of the intgeresting items which I found in the book. See how much of the information you can identify.
