Below are some of the sources that I have in my possession or have copies from private collections. I am happy to share them.

1. My grandmother Henning's family history book which she filled out over the course of approximately 30 years in her handwriting.
 
2. My wife's grandmother Blackmon's family history of her own family and the Martin family. She was an extensive researcher and this combination genealogical book and scrapbook is over 300 pages. I believe she may have done research for more than 40 years. Including personally tracing the Martin and Blackmon roots to England and Ireland.
 
3. A genealogical privately published book tracing the complete descendants of Robert Fischer from my wife's side of the family. This is a combination Ahnentafel and scrapbook compiled over the course of 20 plus years by at least 2 generations of authors.
 
4. A collection of hand written notes from my grandfather Cole given to my father specifically to preserve family history. There is also a closely associated set  family pictures, including tintypes and negatives.
 
5. A growing number of scans my grandmother Henning's items stored in her trunk after her death. This includes family pictures and clippings.

6. A growing set of family history papers and photographs take from my wife's grandmother Martin's house after her death. These include unfinished research, scrapbook items, and some negatives.

7. A copy of my cousin Patsy's genealogical research, including hand written notes from my grandfather Cole and from her Davidson relatives.

8. A copy of my wife's father's research on his Altenhoff roots, including pictures and documentation from his trip to Germany.
