I have been researching my family lines for many years now, both online and through family members. I am hoping that I will be able to tell the story of my family to preserve our history for future generations. I will try to get more photos added as I collect them and appreciate any information that you might have to help me along. This whole project started with my grandmother, Christina Cipko. She started showing me old family photos and documents and a copy of a genealogy that had been started by a family member. This got me thinking about my family history on both sides. Over the years I have found many interesting things and gotten responses from distant cousins who were also researching the same family lines. I thank everyone who has contacted me and who has been able to supply me with photos that I otherwise would have never seen.
I will try my hardest to only represent things that I know to be true. This is hard sometimes and for that reason I have altered or taken away a lot of the content I had previously posted. As I find new information, I have become less confident in the accuracy of my research. There are a lot of things posted online that are not accurate and I don't want to contribute to that. When I first started this project, I thought the more information, the better. It gave me more leads to follow. But as I have gotten some requests and emails to fix errors, I realize that accurate information is the most useful. For that reason, I have removed my genealogy files in order to go through them again. I hope to make this site more of a history through stories and pictures. If you are looking for genealogy records, I recommend looking on Ancestry.com. It is a wonderful resource. |

| Why practice safe genealogy? Identity theft is a growing problem and it is important to keep the privacy of the living. |
