Hello There,

Welcome to our web site.  Please Remember: It belongs to ALL of us.

This web site is a 'Labor of Love' and of course is a work in progress.

Although the name of the site is The ' Hayes, McKinney, Stroud, Martin, Netherton, Brogan,  Kopestsky Family', this file contains many other family names as well.  
 We started this site by entering all the information we currently had on family members. We initially entered 549 names as of 2/27/05.

Most of the STROUD family  information was missing until we met an extraordinary research talent  named Linda Colvard from Tulsa,OK. We are very grateful for her help in locating them.

"Grandpa" Ed (Edwin) Martin  gave a lot of info several years ago in taped oral histories of the Martin family, of which we had the pleasure of listening to......and we Thank David Scott Martin for providing those tapes to us.

Additional info including many names and birth dates, for the MARTIN Family was given verbally to  us by William "Bill" Martin in a telephone conversation in May, 2005; we are very appreciative of his help.

If you find any errors,omissons, or additional information, please email us and we'll gladly put the info on the tree.

HERE'S A TIP :  Women are  ALWAYS listed under their maiden last names NOT their married names.

We hope you have as much fun as we did by discovering all our ancestors!

Hope to hear from you soon and Please sign our Guest Book.

Dale Netherton and Donna (Stroud) Martin-Netherton
