The event celebrated here, the marriage of my parents, joined the Seavey and Bustin families. As the oldest of their four children, I have taken it upon myself to memorialize, categorize, and preserve the rich history of my family.
It is a family deeply rooted in New England and the Maritimes, full of hard-working men and women, farmers, factory and mill workers, housewives and homemakers. As they lived their lives from day to day, they knew good times and rough. As such, they are a reflection of the sturdy, bedrock communities that make up what it means to be from Down East.
I have been working on this genealogy off and on for several years, and it clearly is a work in progress, albeit a labor of love. My goal is to document here my efforts, challenges, and successes. Hopefully, my family, and other historians, will gain insight and inspiration from what is collected here.
A very nice start. Keep up the good work!
ReplyDeleteWelcome to the Geneabloggers family. Hope you find the association fruitful; I sure do. I have found it most stimulating, especially some of the Daily Themes.
May you keep sharing your ancestor stories!
