Al Owens Aunt Tina was married to Tommy Cline. They lived in Mineral, WA. I can remember the first time I seen her was in the early 50's when they came back to Kentucky to visit family. I was in the military during the 60's and while stationed at Ft. Lewis, WA I went to Mineral to visit her and Tommy. She and Tommy would come to our house at Ft. Lewis and spend time with us. She did not have any children. Tommy had a son by a previous marriage. Both of them are burried is Washington.
 
 
Sherleen Holland I knew Dad had an Aunt that lived in WA but couldn't remember which one. Bethany lived in this area do you know where Diane lived Dad never mentioned her. He spoke of Bethany, Tina, Waston and Harve I think there was one named Jason too. Do you guys know how many children Amelda and Thomas had?

This will be a work in progress so visit often to see what is new. I was looking at other blogs and I have decided to put up a family tree site. This site can be designed by me and I don't have to rely on anyone else. I can not do websites per say and this is actually fun. Visit my other blog at Mane Street Blankets.  I also don't like the gedcom files that I have seen on other sites. The ability to add photos also excites me. I have been in touch with cousins that are doing extensive research and they have begun to send me photos. So here goes.

 I am Daucie Lynn Cornett Willson. I was born in Landsthual, Germany in 1955 to Curtis Cornett and Roberta Ritchie. You will not find this information of my birth if you are doing research. My birth certificate is in German. Go figure! My father was in the Army and stationed in Germany. I am the first born.  At this time I only plan to follow the Cornett direct line and then I will pursue the Ritchie line. I do have Information on siblings but will not post those relationships.




This is me teaching a class.



Curtis was born in Dwarf, Kentucky. December 28, 1930. He joined the army while a young man. His service took him to many places in 20 years. To name a few Korea (twice), Vietnam (twice), of course, Germany and several states. No need to bore you with all the moves. I remember him as a gentle person who liked to make toys. A good dad. His parents are Robert Samuel Cornett and Savannah Owens. Both of Kentucky. All this is documented and verified through birth and death certificates. I have found them on census records also. In trying to upload photos I found that most of my photos are  not digital. So I will be scanning photos to add here.
