I've had fun finding my family and reading some of the most unusual and beautiful names. My daughter and I were going through them today as she was named after several in the tree.
Rebecca, beautiful and unusual but often I think parents had a sense of humor although I guess it made it hard on the children. As you know children were often given biblical names. One of my favorites is in the Branch family. They named their son, Olive.
I found a few names that flowed through the generations. One was ironic. Two lines that eventually merged had many women named Leona. The family eventually settled in Laona.
I named my daughter Catherine after my great-great grandmother. Upon looking through the family tree I found tons of Catherines. I also named by youngest Victoria Bell. Her middle name is all through this one line and I just thought it was my grandmother.
