Our Family Histories: Hortons, Dehavens, Surratts, Fitzgeralds, & Caves Dean Brown

Our Family History is about my mother's family and an outline back to our European roots. Growing up in the Blue Ridge Mountains, I thought that my families were just good Christian folk. They worked hard and sometimes played hard. As I began to grow older, I began to research some of the family lines and discovered, as I am sure most other people would, that I had some famous ancestors. I began a search that lasted many years. This is a gathering of stories of our families and the Genealogy of 780 years of Hortons, 381 years of DeHavens, 171 years of Fitzgeralds, 291 years of Surratts, and 456 years of Caves. It is in no way complete. It is only as accurate as the information gathered from old diaries, family bibles and oral histories.
