ATTENTION       ®   ANY SURNAME WHERE THIS SYMBOL >  ®     IS  PRESENT  HAS BEEN ADDED TO THIS TREE STRICTLY  AS  A RESEARCH TOOL.  DO NOT CONSIDER IT AS ACCURATE !   THESE ENTRIES ARE A WORK IN PROGRESS ! ! !

My BROWN and HORNE families emigrated from SCOTLAND to CANADA, at different times and to different  provinces.  My parents were the first of my direct lines to emigrate to the USA.   Lore's JANULEVICUS (JANIS) and  NANTAIS families emigrated from Lithuania, England and Canada to the USA.  They arrived at different times yet It  was here, in OUR homeland, that the merger began.  It was here that families, from such a diverse background,  grew closer, and in doing so expanded the "Family Tree".  Because this is a work in progress, it will change when  facts become evident, with enough proof to necessitate that change.  Because I believe in working in the periphery  of family histories, much of my information may appear questionable and as the "rule" says, always question that  which does not look right". In any event, you owe it to all people within all the family names that each of us represent  to contact me if you have comments or change requests.  It is our hope that you  will find hope, satisfaction,  inspiration and renewal within this site.  Please visit often as additions will be added  as often as possible to  eventually offer all of the information we have.  At the very least, our information goes  from the present to the  landing of the Mayflower, and possibly to Braveheart, or rather his family line.

PLEASE  DO  N O T  ! ! !  take any Diman/Dimont/ Dimond information, or information regarding peripheral families 
such as  POTTER, DeWOLF, HOWE, CODMAN OR COLT,  found here as accurate.  Because of name repetition in 
families,  I have messed up some names and / or dates.  Most of it will prove to be correct but SOME names (spouses) 
or dates  (children/parents)  are wrong.  I sincerely apologize for this goof, it WILL be corrected shortly.   6/15/14 & 
7/2/2014..............................................
( UPDATE = =  1/7/14)    MAJOR CHANGE in my beliefs and ideas because of a search I did today.  While seeking a , 
yet  serious lead to one of MY ancestors I discovered a proven connection to Lorena's ancestors (STONE) 
here in RI.  I will begin preparing the necessary corrections and additions to her part of our tree over the next month.  
This must be done with utmost  care as it is a major find.  Lore' and I may be distant cousins as well as husband and 
wife.
( Update = =  315/13     NEW Family tree >>  for research.   Today I am starting a new try at one avenue of research.  
In an attempt to study, correlate and keep separate from my main fam. tree, information needing to be searched but 
aside from proven lines.  This is a new idea to me but one that needs to be checked.  This entire family may  be 
removed in the  future if the believed possible connection does not prove to be sound.   Wish me luck.

2016.....A New Beginning !   The destination remains the same, but the journey has changed.  2015 was  good and BAD.  TwO 
major changes will definitely effect this site.  The major loss was the passing of my loving Wife Lorena [ Lorè ]  ( JANIS ) BROWN. 
Secondly is my  diagnosis of Macular Degeneration ( the thief of sight) , not the choice of a genealogical researcher. As stated, a 
new beginning.  The road is the same but the trip has changed.  It will be followed in ernest as long as possible.   One major 
change    MY PLEA,  IF you visit this site and feel we may truly share common ancestors,  DO NOT DELAY,  Please Contact Me ASAP.  
to all,  good huting !
