Well I am new here obviously. So thought I would introduce myself.

Hi from Xenia, OH!

My name is Bertha but I like to be called BeBe

I was born in Winston-Salem, NC but grew up in Dayton, OH.

I am a mother of two grown children. A son who lives in Dayton and a daughter who lives in Nashville, TN with her boyfriend. No grandchildren so far and it's looking doubtful that I will have any.

I live by myself or I should say, it's just me and my two cats. :)

My husband passed away in 1999. He was on 2 days from his 48th birthday. :(

My hobbies include (but are not limited to)- genealogy, reading, and listening to music. In particular I really like The Blues. I like reading about people and animals, mostly non-fiction but like some fantasy stories now and then.

I am working on/have info on the following names/family lines:

GEIS(various spellings)in the area of Belvidere, Warren Co, NJ and

REIMEL - in Northampton Co. PA and nearby areas of PA and NJ.

BECK-in Northampton Co. PA and nearby areas of PA

CORRELL- in Northampton Co. PA and nearby areas of PA

BRODT- in Northampton Co. PA and nearby areas of PA

These are just some of the lines I am working on but will post most at another time.

I hope to make some connection here and get some help on my research as well as help others with theirs! :)
