"If
you can not get rid of the family skeleton, you may as well make it dance!"
...George Bernard Shaw
Welcome to
"Wyscaver and More"
I want to dedicate this to
all my relatives that have collected names and dates and carefully passed them along with
their cherished photographs and keepsakes.
Especially, to my mother Mary
Frances Dunn Wyscaver, who gave me so many memories, always taking us kids to the
cemetery, all the family stories that I didn’t write down. But especially for making
me proud of my family.
Thank
you to all the other researchers and especially the USGENWEB, for all their thoughtful
help.
