The Short & Austin Families of Haywood County, Tennessee |
From 1813 to Present Day |
"We are the chosen. In each family there is one who seems called to find the
ancestors; to put flesh on their bones and make them live again, to tell the
family their story and to feel that somehow they know and approve. Genealogy
is not a cold gathering of facts; instead, it is breathing life into all who
have gone before. We are the story tellers of the tribe. All tribes
have one. We have been called as if it were in our genes. Those
who have gone before cry out to us: Tell our story, and so we do.
In them we find ourselves." - Author Unknown |
