About Me
Hi, my name is
Natalie!
I decided to make a website about the one thing that means the most to me...my
family!
At the age of 22, I gave birth to my first child and really wanted her to know
where she comes from. With little information on my family roots I went down to
my local Mormon church and began the tedious job of researching where my
father's family came from. After months of looking, monthly memberships and
hundreds of dollars later I came up with some amazing facts. This started me on
my life long quest to find every family member I can. I also felt that the
information I acquired was pretty impressive to share with other Chisholm's
world wide. Not only just my pedigree but the history that surrounds our last
name.
When my great-great grandfather was forced from his land, he along with his
wife Isabella, 6 children and their relatives, boarded three ships: The Sarah, The Dove & The
Hector and headed towards
Pictou, Nova Scotia. It is there that our Canadian roots were planted.
We have a prince, farmers, police officers, singers, a queen, a castle, and Chisholm
lands in Strathglass, Scotland.
In summary, family is THE most important thing that we have. (Some people don't
even have that.) But we all have friends, and the friends that I do have are a
part of my family. I cherish each and every person in my life and even those
that I meet or with whom I pass by on a daily basis plays a very important role
in who I am. I see my great-great grandfather as a hero. With absolutely nothing
but each other, they managed to relocate the entire family to this beautiful
country in search of a better life. They found it!
