This is an autobiographical work. I am not a famous character, and so, to be meaningful and interesting to the reader, an autobiography of a historically unknown person should represent more than just some cathartic endeavor; this book accomplshes this objective. It presents references and descriptions of some relatively famous people in my family history who have touched my life, and it also provides information that a reader can utilize in pursuit of their own quest to know more about themselves and the world around them. That is my objective and hope for this endeavor.
