He discovered distant relatives who had a copy of a hand-drawn family tree created by his great-great-grandfather. He learned the name of his ancestral town when he discovered his family members’ burial location and so much more. \n\n\n\nDavid\, along with his children Taylor\, and Philip spent the last three years researching their paternal lineage. The knowledge they gained exceeded all perceived expectations. \n\n\n\nPlease confirm your attendance RSVP jgsgm.vpprogramming@gmail.com.
