Here we will report the ongoing research on individual and related families entering into the New World at various stages of immigration, as our investigations into the archival sources enable a fuller understanding of those stages of our history. These explorations, which arose from individual requests (sometimes expressed as pleas), with scrupulous scholarly investigations allow us better to comprehend the legacy which we carry and to recognize, mourn, honor, and celebrate the individuals who have helped to create and foster us, so that we might prepare more steadily and readily for our and our families’ future.

Please watch this space as we prepare to tell the results of some years’ work, which may lead to more conversations linking our shared quests.
