Welcome to my "family bramble". My family tree is so twisted in knots from
brothers of one family marrying sisters from another, first cousins marrying
one another, etc. that I refer to it as a bramble. My mother is the former
Anna Sue Daugherty of Cromwell, Ohio County, Kentucky. My father is
Robert Louis Hofmann from Louisville, Jefferson County, Kentucky. The
Hofmann's and Ott's are the paternal side. Everyone else is on the maternal
side. I hope this site can help you fill out your tree and for you to help me
fill out mine. The only way we can all find our roots is if we dig
together and share with one another.
I will try to add GEDCOMS and/or family data pages as I go along. Please bear
with me. I'm just starting this page.
Please e-mail me at dandpkaelin@fusenet.com if you see a possible family
connection.
I am gradually obtaining research resources. I am happy to do look-ups for
you--within reason. These are the sources I currently have available.

Old Irish Prayer:
Lord, please let my friends love me. Please turn my enemies hearts so they
love me, too. Lord, if you can't turn their hearts, please turn their ankles
so I may recognize them.
