I have a number of Genealogical Projects that take up my time:
Hotchkiss, Lee, Munn, Tilden and Other Related Families
This is a manuscript that I found at the Farmington [Michigan] Library. It was prepared as a Project of the Farmington Genealogical Society. No one at the Farmington Society knows where it came from and neither does the library. I have taken on going through the document and creating a pedigree for the author (whom is unknown). In addition to the structure in the manuscript, I am transcribing whatever information I can decipher from the hand-written document. I also uploaded the full structure (as I go through the document which starts at the author’s furthest ancestor and works its way down) to Ancestry for it to find supporting / correcting documents which could add to the information. There are a number of cited references that I have also been able to pull up and apply to the text. Haithi Trust has been a great resource. April 2023, I have been able to review the information to identify the author as Henry Waters Lee (1866-1941). Now the real work of “fleshing” out the stories! The book has been published and is available at Ancestry.com

A great number of suggested relationships are given in the app. This project is to verify the “projections” and tie them into my database
