About Veal/Harper/Joiner/Kilgore/Ennis/Griffin/Paulk/Pritchett
I have been researching these family names now for years. It all started when I was a little boy,  I found that I could get the adults to talk to me and really open up when I would ask them  questions about old pictures that were in the house.  I also would hear wonderful stories that my  grandparents would tell me of their families and parents and grandparents.  What started off as a  hobby turned into a passion.  The old pictures in the scrapbooks I would see in my great aunts and  uncles always fascinated me.  Family reunions were my favorite times.  I remember being a young  historian, standing up in front of everyone at the church reunions and telling the congregation  what I had learned.   I began to study the field of genealogy through books written by the experts  and many visits to the libraries. Genealogy has been a life-long passion, almost a spiritual  quest. Though the Bible admonishes us not to `woship` our ancestors, it does say we should not  forget who they are. A large part of the Bible is taken up with family lineages, and I believe  they are still very important to us all today. Knowing who we are and where we came from goes a  long way to helping us feel like we belong to something larger than ourselves -- we belong in the  history of mankind. I also pray that all of us will come to the acceptance of Christ as our  Savior, our Lord, and our Coming King, and be not only members of one family here -- but, members  of the eternal family of God.  This website is just a start, be patient with me. Hope you enjoy  and I would love to hear from any of you.
