Miller, Somers, Wilson, Wynn Family Trees
Welcome to my free public genealogy web site!
Hundreds of hours and many years have been spent researching and documenting thousands of these ancestors.
I have included many photos. Clicking on a photo will open it in full size view.
These family trees can also be found on the membership-only
genealogy site Ancestry.com at: Miller, Somers, Wilson, Wynn Family Trees.
Sources used to obtain the information contained in these family trees consist of birth, death & marriage records; as well as national, state, county & city Census data; along with a few Wills, books and family stories; and also my personal knowledge or the personal knowledge of living persons. When no other sources are available, a consensus of information from other multiple family trees and genealogy databases was used.
These are my great, great, grandparents from Indiana. I love this old photo of them pretending to be in a canoe.
Discovering this photo is what led me to search for other members of my family tree.
