Who are we?

As mentioned on the home page, this is not a commercial site. We are just one family. We are the descendants of John J. Grace and Margaret Barbara Goeller of Lansdowne, Maryland. This site is for all of us and for those of you who may be related and would like to connect. It is also here as inspiration for others to document their own family histories. This site contains much family history. It is the organic culmination of research and family contributions. We all have memories and stories of and from our ancestors. What many don’t realize is that those stories and memories live with them and will not necessarily be passed on; and if so, perhaps not accurately. This is why it is important to record those memories, stories and experiences today. We have the advantage of computers, word processors, digital files and photos that our ancestors did not. The world we live in today implies an onus or a certain sense of responsibility to save, document and record our lives and those ancestors whom we have knowledge of for future generations.
