In French it was Sanreal. In Celtic it was Groal. The word Grail has had many meanings and definitions during its long history of useage.

It has been my belief that the state we all are in right now is part of another ...

Browne Ayes I am simply copying and pasting a letter that I sent off today to friends and relatives relaying an update on my most recent discoveries on the Ayes Surname. I have been researching this surname for many years now and I have come to a very high point in that research that will serve as more fuel to fire up some more motivation. Thus far I have traced my Ayes to the medieval days of the middle 1100's. I find this very exciting. Before I copy and paste the ...

Mon, 23 Jun 2008 19:42:17 GMT http://greasy.com/ayesart/ayes_unravels_hernando_soto_mystery.html I just finished the Hernando de Soto family tree today. After doing a lot of research within PARES Ministerio de Cultura, Spain. I downloaded a lot of documents relative to this family and then began mapping out their family tree via those documents. The work is the result of the many errors I found within the historical accounts of Hernando de Soto. Lets start with the biggest error of them all. The one I found within Wikipedia. The article there lists his wife's name correctly on the fir ... Fri, 6 Jun 2008 23:12:15 GMT http://greasy.com/ayesart/interesting_urls_research.html My interests come out of researching data for my family tree. A lot of these links will take you to free books that are online. Others will take you to Web Sites that are studies on DNA, like Gary Felix's page. That's a good example of a descent forum that serves a good purpose. I have also provided a link that will take you to a global incident map.

My work with the de Silva blood line has stirred up some coals and has brought back some life within the genealogical circles I frequent. I just got challenged on issues concerning my Copy Right on stuff I spent some long hours researching. I purposely have not been sharing that data within Forums. If I do share something it gets Copy Righted. That didn't seem to agree with that the head of the forum. They really wanted to "ab ...

Browne Ayes I have made an interesting discovery while looking for our Sephardim connections. If you will remember, Betty Hubbard sent me a URL link to me that led to a book on Google that shared the possibility of Converso connections within the de Silva family tree by way of the Fonseca. After reading that online book and seeing the family trees that were within it I decided to do some hard ...

A sadist who calls himself an artist has gone out of his way to starve a dog to death at an art gallery as an "installation." There are images of the "exhibition" but I am not going to support it by uploading them here. Please read below and follow the link to sign the petition.
