I am a genealogy addict.
Once I started looking for family trees, I began climbing them. Sprouting in a hundred different directions has led me to find cousins I never knew existed. The Hubbard line is through my mother, Neyda Mae Hubbard. The beautiful lady in this photograph was her mother, Ella Myrtle Chubb. She married Jay Kimball Hubbard in 1910 in Portland, Oregon where he worked on the railroad. The story before and after will eventually fill these pages...
My cousin, Tess Bradford Haydon began the Hubbard and Chubb journey about ten years ago and has amassed a huge depository of information. To add narrative and follow her path, I have created this blog to give mother a better picture of her family. Neyda (my mother) is the only living Hubbard from that generation and she is thrilled to learn more about her family. Tess has created fabulous family history albums and has shared with the family so everyone can be part of the journey.
I am in limbo at this time because I also write books, and I want to pull the family history posts from my website to bring it all into focus. My timeline plan will include everything in my files from then to now before the end of 2015 rolls around. Stay tuned.
