Lots of Content added

Since I have started adding quite a bit of content, I am not going to burden the cousins with update e-mails every time I add something new, only when something really fun is added. As was my intention all along, I am going to start backtracking now and fill in some of the information on Frant and Annie before I start adding more on the more distant ancestors. Although I enjoy researching, I prefer input from others too. The more input I have, the more fun this site will be.

This does not mean that there is no information about or ancestors. I have contact with a relative in New Zealand who is also a descendant of James and Margaret Esplin. James and Margaret were the parents of John, married to Margaret, parent of John James married to Harriet, father of Francis. This contact has provided me with photos and information on the siblings of Francis’ grandfather John. As is the case with all photos, even before they are on the website they can all be located in the
web gallery.

Laree and Ron also have had contact with a promising new resource with lots of information on more distant ancestors. We hope to someday soon be able to share some of his information. There’s a lot more going on in the background than you’re seeing on these pages. Hopefully it will all be added eventually.

Added a story on Gordon’s page about a
wagon accident that Frant surmises to be the probable cause of his prematurity.

Added
Annie’s Story of Gordon’s birth.

Added a
poem written by Annie probably on the occasion of their 50th anniversary.
