Pilgrims and Pioneers: Happy 4th of July!!

Welcome To Pilgrims and Pioneers!

After many years of researching my family geneaology I have been lucky enough to discover actual information about my relatives that lived in the Pilgrim Era and the Pioneer Era- while many people also have realtives from those eras- many do not know their names or where they lived- actually seeing the proof in print makes you much more aware of who they really were.
After discovering these relatives it of course made me curious to learn more about the eras that they lived in and what their lives were like as, the history I learned in grade school had long since been forgotten.
I decided to start this blog for others who are also interested in these eras.
Some of the information here will be actual facts about my realtives and some will be information about the eras in general that I have found on the web.
I hope you will enjoy traveling back in time with me!

Don't know how to converse with you, but was wondering which Bump linage you are part of? Keep up the good work. I find it fascinating.; July 6, 2008 at 12:52 PM

I think the difference in which great grandfather he is to you may be in our age difference.
You can email me at prairieprim@comcast.net if you want to discuss this further.
