Welcome To My Homepage
Welcome to my genealogy website. I started researching my family history in 1998, shortly after my son was born. He was diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis, which is a genetic disease that affects maily the lungs and digestive systems.
Since this is a genetic disease, I am determined to find out WHO in my family history had CF. Of course as we all know, back in “those days” people did not have a diagnosis for CF or many of the other diseases we know of today. But I can still search for the family members that had the symptoms of CF then get more info on them and decide for myself whether this particular family member might have had it or not.
I am very excited to finally have found 1 person who most likely had CF: Daniel Lynn Skiver ,which means that the following people are carriers of the CF gene:
Perlie Skiver & Waneta Gale Carnahan
Daniel Skiver or Luella Theresa Smith & Abner Carnahan or Celia L Sanford
Augustus (Jocyrus) Skiver or Susan Giltz
David Skiver or Eleanor Nellie McCullock
John Skiver or Catherine Mann
