WELCOME! to the resources page for the HIGHTOWER-L list!
Submissions are very welcome.
HIGHTOWER FAMILIES
Check out a new experiment. I have created pages for every Hightower family unit I have found. They are grouped by the lines coming from Joshua Hightower and his wife Eleanor. I put these pages together from posts to Hightower-L and from information gleaned where I could find it. If you wish to be added as a contact on a page, I will be glad to add a hyperlink to your email address. I will be happy to make corrections, etc.
You have two choices for exploring the new pages. There is an index of persons for whom there are pages, with the names of the first generations of their families. Or search from the quick link page.
There are pages too for folks who are not yet established as connected to Joshua and Eleanor. I will be happy to add more.
View the pages with caution. They are new, and it is my hope they can be improved with additions (or subtractions) information. Keep an open mind and remember the only way to get the real proof on your family lines is to do the document chase. Use these pages as guides!
My hope is that this will help folks break down some brickwalls.
