We are Englishmen escaping persecution in Scotland and Ireland - eventually settling in the early colonies. We are Swiss, and Germans from Russia who settled in North Dakota. We stretch through every corner of the United States.

We are patriots and servicemen who fought bravely in almost every major war in our country. We are statesmen and oil men who drilled on the Oklahoma Capitol Grounds. We are tradesmen who worked closely with Native American's to cut a military trail that transported troops and supplies during the American Revolution. We are kin to one of America's most notorious outlaws, and men of God who established churches of many faiths around the country.

Our history, like so many families, was handed down from one generation to the next. Some can be proven from early histories, news clippings, public records and books; while others are found in the letters, post cards, and pictures collected over time. Monuments and grave markers, churches and even homes have unlocked a snapshot of who we are.

We are the sum of all that has come before us, and we will live on in those that follow.
