I never knew I had kin with the same last name as mine. For my father had told me what had been on his mind. A long time ago his sister and two brothers had pased a way, This I could see was hard for him to say. After many years I began to wonder who were my Grand parents that had the last name the same as mine. As looking for a needle in a hay stack which would be easier to find than looking for my Grand-parents that had the last name the same as mine.
After checking records and reading many books back in 1635 a man with the same last name as mine came to America to seek freedom and plant seeds of hope.
Through out history I now do find many a men with the last name the same as mine.
Their deeds through out history I read with much pride with friends and neighbors and God on their side they fought the red coats they did not run or hide.
Later in history their sons would ride to do battle to set all men free.
These men came from all walks of life from cites and farms some large and some small.
I can honestly say with much pride it makes me feel about ten feet tall.
When I began to look for my family tree I only had a seed I not only found the tree but a forest of people with a last name the same as mine.
I am proud to be an Antrim
