A photo of my mother's parents on the day of their wedding in 1917. Interestingly enough their respective parents had arranged their marriage prior to coming to America in 1906-07.
Welcome!
Welcome to my site! There's a lot here to absorb, learn and discover. I hope you make good use of the data for there's a wealth of material to pique your interest....this site is a work in progress...check the "What's New" menu for updates!"
Of recent & great interest has been the Jemisons of Adams County, Pennsylvania with Mary, the white woman of the Genesee. A number of years ago I had received an e-mail from someone up in that area commenting briefly that there's quite a number of Jemisons should I be interested. Well, it took me ten years or more to get there, but I am there. A very challenging tree, indeed, as not all were Christian and many practiced polygamy. While many native Americans chose not to follow, many became Christians and adopted the traditions of having a Christian and a surname to better themselves and communicate. You will discovered the intricacies that plaques the modern genealogists in their pursuits to learn of their ancestries and discern their original roots. I have not seen the family tree hitched up to Ancestry.com so I'm not sure how it compares with my own Jamisons in upstate New York, though it may not favorably resemble what others have already worked hard to produce. In that event I'll have to check out the sources. The Jamesons of Ulster has been completely revamp due to a corruption that altered much of the data. It is now "live" and available with new researched families and will continue to grow in the near future. The Scotland Jameson's is an accumulated research that's gone over the 4700 people mark. I started working on Scotland two years ago in order to crash through a few of the brick walls I and others have had. I discovered that not everyone stopped in Ireland so I've been able to extend some of the colonial ancestors back a few generations and more. About 90% of the work is locked up sourced-tight, however, some speculation exists based on circumstances, locations and singular aspects that help tie in our family.The above newly created databases have been added to the growing list of family branches on this site. Additionally, I've recently started working on The British Jamesons and this will be appearing shortly as will be other researches I've conducted. Additionally, I've been researching the early settlers of Nutfield, specifically, and New England, particularly, building up a Scot's database of family surnames under the title, "The 1718 Genealogy". These families were all one huge family here in the states and in Ireland and Scotland, too. The importance of this work is in the incredible amount of blood connections that have been going on for so long among these families and is worth a look for the relationships and the historical as well. NOTE: A number of disconnected Jameson branches will be discovered, meaning that these trees do not all relate to one another. I've purposely done this to facilitate my research into these countries, it is after all a huge database, so be forewarned of the discontinuity it may display.
And please join us, John Jameson and I, on his www.jamesonnetwork.com/ site where a considerable amount of ground work is going on to support all Jameson researchers. New articles are being posted including new records and I have even restarted another updated version of the newsletter or News-digest.

My Great Great Grandfather resided on the farm he inherited in Manchester Center, Vermont from his father, James. The area still retains the name of "Jameson Flats", today.
