Coming from so many distinguished ancestors,
Genealogy was a natural attraction for Julie
One purpose of this web site is to create a place where Julie can post her genealogy research. She has worked for many years on the line of her great-grandmother, Martha Telle Cannon , who married George Q. Cannon (holding the flowers above). In doing this research, Julie has also worked on many collateral families. There is information on Martha's grandmother, Ann Espy, and her ancestors who helped settle Pennsylvania. She has found and/or written histories on some of these people. The book Julie has prepared with this information and sources can be accessed by clicking The Telle Book link below. The book's genealogy and additional genealogy on collateral lines is posted on worldconnect.rootsweb.com . Email contact is welcome, julie at bsmarkham.com.

Below is the link to my biography of Benjamin Freeman Bird. The research was complicated and lengthy, and I used endnotes to keep track of my research. If you are interested in the endnotes, I recommend you open two browsers so you can read the endnotes concurrently with the main text. Please email julie at bsmarkham.com if you find typos or mistakes I might have missed.
