There is a destiny that makes us brothers, 
No one goes his way alone; 
All that we send into the lives of others, 
Comes back into our own. 
             Edwin Markham, on brotherhood



We inherit from our ancestors gifts so often taken for granted... Each of us contains within us 
this inheritance of soul. We are links between the ages, containing past and present expectations, 
sacred memories and future promise. 
 - Edward Sellner -



THE MURMA FAMILY

The information was gathered by Walter A. Murma (1918-1981) from family members in the United 
States and by correspondence with the Lithuanian branch in Vilnius and Australia.  Current 
information on the family has come, via e-mail, from Sigitas Sulcas in Lithuania.  Also extensive 
research by Saralee M Caldwell.



THE ENMAN FAMILY

All information is from extensive work done by Mildred (Enman) DeNooy, late of Los Angeles, 
California (Prince Edward Island Archives has 12 binders of information compiled by Mildred), 
Richard Mark Enman, of Massachusetts, and Norma (Milligan) Falconer, of Ontario, Canada (see "The 
Enman Family" at tribalpages.com). The McInnis family and the families of the children of Evelyn 
Enman was researched by Saralee M Caldwell.



THE CALDWELL FAMILY 

Research by Dorcas (Pratt) Caldwell, late of Orange, Texas, and Patricia (DeCuio) Caldwell, of 
Pennsylvania; this was input into a data base by Susan M. Caldwell and can not be retrieved.  Sue 
did a printout before the data was lost and I have worked from that and from a box full of 
documents she sent me, some original, some copies. Additional research by Saralee M 
Caldwell.



THE CUMMINGS / McINNIS FAMILY

From Arlene Somers Gillian, of Prince Edward Island, Canada; information and photos left by Mary B 
McInnis Enman, and research by Saralee M Caldwell.



THE DE NOOY / DORENBOS / ZISKO FAMILY

Information, biographies and photographs from Cathryn (De Nooy) Smyers of Montana, and Karen Lynne 
Zisko of California. Karen also provided me with a printed genealogy 'The Horak-Pavlicek Families 
Through the Years' prepared for Richard Zisko by Paul V Kosek, which contains family narrative and 
photos, but no references. (See photo section)



THE GARREHY/DENNEN FAMILY

The majority of information came from Dennis Lee Garrehy, a genealogy he prepared in August of 
1989.



THE HUMMEL FAMILY

Historical information is from "A Genealogy of Selected Northumberland County, Pennsylvania, 
Pioneer Families, from the Arrival of the Immigrant Ancestors to the Present Time; Part XI, The 
Johan Jacob Hummel Family", compiled by Joseph A Meiser, Jr., B.S., Ph.D., Sarah Roadarmel 
Meiser, and Dorothy Schuck Amerman. Published by the authors 1983.  Current family information on 
the George Phillip Hummel, b. 1727, branch can be found in "The Hommel/Hummel & Lewis Families" on 
tribalpages.com, research by Michael E. Hommel.



THE MacLEOD FAMILY

From William MacLeod and Marjorie Matthews Bemont, both late of Massachusetts. Two wonderful 
genealogy and email friends, both missed so very much.



THE PHILLIPS FAMILY

Information from Veryl Geraldine Cates and from a manuscript entitled "The Ancestry of Paul R. 
Phillips, compiled by Helen M. Phillips". The manuscript, of which I have a copy, was originally 
typed with photos, documents, family group sheets and charts. The copy was returned to Mrs. Dean 
Barnette in 2009. Additional information and research by Saralee M Caldwell.



THE PRATT / JEWETT FAMILY

All this information was given to me by Susan M. Caldwell, of Orange, Texas and/or Dorcas (Pratt) 
Caldwell, and was prepared, apparently, by one of the children of Charles G. Pratt as references 
are made as: "dad's second brother" (Thomas  Franklin Pratt) "mother's father" (John S. Jewett).  
This person obviously had access not only to many living persons in 1962, when this hand typed 
document was prepared, but also access to the family Bible or Bibles.  Many family photos provided
by Betty Lou (Baker) Honaker from an album kept by Grace L Pratt. Historical research by Saralee M 
Caldwell.

From Dorothy Schuck Amerman via Dorcas Jean Pratt Caldwell.
