The Cantrell Cousins Project is a database of shared family research. In
combining our efforts we are locating 'close cousins' and completing our
family tree. Contributors receive periodic updates of the combined
Descendants Report with their family included. The Report contains proved
and recent family lineage as well as ongoing research and discoveries.
Documentation of our oldest known ancestors is continually being entered.
Primary sources of data are linked to the email address of the provider.
Cantrell descendants who wish to join in the partnership may send family info
to Carol Cantrell at [CantrellCousin(a)aol.com].
Many thanks to both beginning researchers and the experienced genealogists
for your support and additions to this project. Carol Cantrell
