Under Water?

"Horace Peele"

After thirty plus years of research, my brother Marvin B. Peele, Jr., and I are slowly writing a book to capture the enormity of this wonderful family and some of its contributions to the formation of this nation as it spread across America. It will, when finished, cover four hundred years (1601-2000) of PARTIAL history... since no family history is ever complete. If you are our Cousin, we want to make sure that your family is included in this voluminous book of about 1500-2000 pages. Be sure to take a detailed look at the Book Outline.

That history starts with our ancestor Lawrence Peelle who arrived in Virginia in late March or early April 1621. The existing London Company records show that there were only 603 people recorded living in Virginia in March 1621 just as Lawrence arrived. He was truly one of the first settlers of this, our great land.

Since January 2001, we have published a quarterly newsletter by the name of "Lawrence, Etc." You are invited to submit articles or items of interest on your family line to Horace for inclusion in the newsletter.

One of the ways we have been able to help others in their genealogy search is through the generosity of others like YOU who are willing to share.  Please sign our Guestbook with your information so that we may share.  For those who signed our earlier email guestbook, please sign again -- your information will automatically and instantly be posted to the new Guestbook.  The new guestbook provides a means of communications between people of different family groups who may help you in your research.  Thanks for signing...

We also have out own FREE Peele Genealogy discussion group for you to use, just check the Association page.  Post your FREE Brickwalls to our Brickwall page to help solve some of those unsolved family mysteries.  Posting is a FREE serrvice.....

And what about all those family Reunions? Do you know of one that I don't have listed?  If you do please get me the information or a contact point. I would be most happy to list it and advertise it FREE!

And if you desire, you may look at the first twelve generations of My Family Tree from Lawrence down through my brother Marvin and I.

Oops, but please don't go until you have read the joke being typed at the bottom of this page!!!
