These stories include genealogy research on one line of Jarvis families in Indiana and Kansas. This volume begins after the Civil War and follows our Jarvis families through the end of World War I. In 1865 the Civil War was over. Three generations of Jarvises lived in southeast Indiana – Harvey and Sarah, Joseph and Martha, and Newton. By the early 1910s, these generations had died out. There remained Jarvis families in Indiana, but our next generation, Ralph Jarvis, came west to Kansas. By the end of World War I, Ralph would marry and set down roots in Kansas. This volume is also dedicated to two technological wonders of this era. 1. This is the first volume in which we have photographs of our grandparents! That adds a wonderful new dimension to our memories of them. 2. The electric light illuminated homes and lives! Our grandparent Ralph Jarvis worked in this new industry, and it brought him to Kansas and his future wife.

Book excerpt: "Family Nibbles - Volume 11, Stories of Our Maninger Ancestors 1700-1920" is a compilation of stories from the blog site familynibbles.com. Since the 1600s, generations of our Maningers lived in and around the village of Dittwar, Germany. It's a village in a side valley of the Tauber River southwest of Würzburg, Germany. The farms and vineyards sustained the Maningers for generations. By the mid-1800s, economic and military factors contributed to emigration from Europe to the Western Hemisphere. In 1854, Valentine Maninger left Dittwar for America, settling in central Illinois. He plied his trade as a shoemaker, then became a farmer. In Illinois, Valentine met and married Magdalena Smith Neuhauser. Magdalena's family had come from Alsace Lorraine, and had close ties with neighboring Amish families. Those families lived, worked, married, and worshipped together. In the 1880s, the families moved west together, to Harper County, Kansas. Valentine Maninger's descendants established farms and jobs and businesses in Harper. In the 20th century, succeeding generations found opportunity and work away from Harper. Today the Maninger descendants are widespread, but relish their common heritage.

These stories include genealogy research on one line of Jarvis/Jervis families in the English Midlands, as well as some historical context and events. Join our journey as we search for an elusive ancestor, Elizabeth Jervis. We believe she's a widow and a Quaker, and left England for Pennsylvania around 1682. How in the world is it possible to find her in England? We get help along the way from a great genealogist and historian. And a DNA match pulls another Jervis family into the story. With this help, we begin to piece together the story of the Jervis families at the confluence of Staffordshire, Shropshire, and Cheshire. We discover some Jervis gentry families in this area, and learn that Jervises were here back in the 13th century. Using our DNA, we learn how our families migrated from Scandinavia. We study Quakers and Quaker meeting records. Piece by piece, our search builds a story of people, hopes and troubles, hardships and charity. In the end we find Elizabeth Jervis, but the journey has been the fun part.

Book excerpt: "Family Nibbles - Volume 5, Stories of Our Jarvis Ancestors 1800-1865" is a compilation of stories from the blog site familynibbles.com. These stories include genealogy research on one line of Jarvis families in Kentucky and Indiana. This volume begins after the Revolutionary War and follows our Jarvis family until the end of the Civil War. Between those two conflicts, our Jarvis grandparents uprooted their families, left their parents and hometowns, and went west. They found opportunities and hardships and met successes and failures. They went from self-sufficiency on the Kentucky frontier to shopping in general stores that sold window glass, canned food, and factory-made clothing. They experienced technological miracles – the telegraph, steamboat, railroad, and steel plow. We have their census records, deeds, and death notices. We can view their lives through the prism of citations and history and current events of their times. But we can’t know their thoughts or dreams or fears. Wouldn’t it be great to be able to meet them in person and experience their lives for a while.

Book Family Nibbles   Volume 8

Book excerpt: "Family Nibbles - Volume 8, Stories of Our Pensa and Riley Ancestors" is a compilation of stories from the blog site familynibbles.com. This volume is about the lives of our Pensa, Gardella, and Riley ancestors. We were lucky to find references to the Pensa and Gardella families in Italy dating to the 1500s. The families had lived in the mountain village of Roccatagliata for generations when Antonio and Rosa Pensa departed for America in 1869. With few belongings and no English-language skills, they made a life in St. Louis. John and Ann Riley left Ireland in the late 1840s to escape The Great Famine. They tried coal mining in Pennsylvania, farming in Indiana and Iowa, and were one of the early families to settle in Pettis County, Missouri in 1859. These families left a lasting legacy. We’re the evidence. Without their pluck and perseverance and a bit of luck, we wouldn’t be reading this today.

And when each generation suffered an economic hardship that made their lifestyle unsustainable, they chose the risk of moving west into frontier lands.
