[quote="Jin-Roh":46957]Faith is a funny thing.[/quote:46957]You sure aren't. oOo:

my family's been in this same state since before the american revolution. not much known after that though. i gotta find out

on my moms side we can trace it all the way back to 1500's in england and it turns out I am related to princess di

all I know is that my mother's side (Syrian) might have been related to the Barbary pirates in the northern africa/middle eastern area.

is that why your family tree is just a column?

It's been said already, chubrolls.

The name Ferich, which is my surname, I'm 50% sure originates from Germany. From my research there's very small amounts of Ferichs in modern day Germany, Luxembourg, Austria, Hungary, Croatia, and England.

The Galbreath family (mom) had it's own castle in Ye Olde Scotland. rock:


But they took it away because we were a bunch of raping, pillaging assholes.......




rock:

happy: Hahaha



Anyway, I am not really able to find any nice information on my dad's side, of the [before Ellis Island] surname, Williamson. After Ellis Island, it became Wilson. So, yeah. I am told that on my dad's side, we are from Norway and England, I think.

YOU MUST REPRODUCE - IMMEDIATLY!!!

I had some ancestors come over on the Mayflower, under the name Alden from England, so im mostly english, but i do have a little German in me.

[quote:24b2c]Arthur Pequegnat came from Switzerland to Berlin, Ontario ca. 1874 with his brothers, sisters and parents. In the 1880s he was importing watches for sale locally in western Ontario. Around 1897 Arthur built a factory in Berlin to manufacture ... bicycles! When that market started to decline, he began in 1904 to convert part of his factory over to making clock movements. Initially his clock cases were produced in local furniture factories, typically with quarter-cut oak but occasionally with mahogany or walnut. Later he set up his own small factory for case production in nearby Breslau.

The town name was changed from Berlin to Kitchener in 1916. After Arthur died in 1927, relatives continued to operate the company until 1941. At that time the shortage of brass, a key component of the clock movements and other parts, forced the business to shut down.

A whole book has been devoted to the history of this top-of-the-list, one-hundred-percent Canadian manufacturer of clocks. Six original company catalogues were found during research for the book, but no company production records were ever discovered. Approximately sixty-five catalogued models of mantel clock are known, as well as sixteen models of wall clock (with variations) and seven models of grandfather (hall) clock. The Pequegnat company also sold several "clock kits" for various sizes of clocks over the years - everything one needed except for the case.
Because it was one of the most well-known and successful CANADIAN clock companies, its products are very desirable in Canada. The company and the clocks it produced are subject of several books and articles by Jane Varkaris, FNWACC, a former NAWCC (National Association of Watch and Clock Collectors) director. The clocks' Canadian values are well documented in "The Charlton Standard Catalogue of Canadian Clocks" by J.E. Connell. (ISBN 1198-984X) This was first published in 1994, and now (2002) is in its second or third edition.[/quote:24b2c]

I've noticed if you look carefully at David Hasselhoff, you would notice that the .gif file starts at his chest, and ends at his face. Thus, you won't see the close up of the area between his face and chest. Darn.
