WELCOME TO MY HOMEPAGE!
I guess I need an intro here--my name is
Kathie Weigel and I am now living in my hometown of Akron, Ohio, after
returning from 25 years in Southern California. .
My hobbies are reading, genealogy, history,
genealogy, computer, genealogy, and genealogy! The main purpose of my home page
is to provide genealogical databases for the researcher. Links are available
for Cornish, Pennsylvania German and Quaker information.
JUST FOR FUN!
