Genealogy has become a hobby for me over the last 10 years. For me, it's like a puzzle, I love fitting the pieces together. But over the years, I've researched a lot that does not pertain to our family lines. Some for extended family, some for close friends, and some because I was trying to rule out lines to figure out where our line went exactly. I do not want these notes on my Heather's Genealogy Notes blog - because they are not our lines. But I do like to share all of my research, in case it benefits others. That is what this blog is for - research I have done that does not apply to our own family lines, but may be helpful for someone else.

"Just a note to inform you that your great Aunt Kitty (Kathleen Lumbard Hoffman Dempsey) grandaughter of Joseph Asher Lumbard and Sara Scharf Lumbard, passed away on July 9, 2007 at the age of 106.5 years. For your family tree records, she was born February 15, 1901. She was the oldest daughter of George Meade Lumbard and Anna Laura Keller Lumbard. She is buried in NJ next to her husband William Dempsey"

"Recently I came into possession of Kathleen Lumbards family pictures and some correspondence about her family, she is right now 105 years old, 99% blind, and in a retirement facility located in sunrise florida. She is known as Kathleen Dempsey, or "Miss Kitty" to her friends. There is no doubt, after viewing pictures of her father, that he is closely related to Joseph Asher Lumbard, possibly his son. Kathleen was born on Feb 15 1901, and says her younger brother whom I assume would be Robert Lumbard 1907 - 1911 d: 09 Sep 1911 on your family tree, died at 4 years old of consumption."
