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.

  1. Hi, thank you for this. My name is Kristen and celestial Agnes Coleman was my great great grandmother. I have the Coleman-Kester bible, which containes marriage, birth and death records for the family from 1798-about 1896. There is a name I have on the Coleman side I didn't see in your list. It is Mary Susan Coleman, born 31 Jan 1842. Lydia is missing from the record I have, I will be adding her now. Thank you again for all the work you've done.
