  • My Family Wiki
    I have written small essays (stories) on individual families and generations of the families in my past. These link together the facts that are buried in the genealogical database listed below. The wiki format  makes for an easier to view the relationships and events of the Bogan, Kehrer, Reber, and Pfahler ancestry.  The wiki also includes maps, descendencies, pedigrees along with time lines. These are connected with hyperlinks.  Many of stories are improvements on ones written earlier and put on the Stories page.
