It is important, in my estimation, that future generations be provided with some information about their ancestors. Accordingly, I will attempt to provide a summary which will hopefully bring life to the folks upon whose shoulders we sit. My sister Dorothy and I happen to be the last links on our side of the family who personally knew the first Nefzger arrivals to America. So I will start with the Nefzger-Raith story first, to be followed by the Williams narrative, which goes back to the pioneers in Kentucky and the American Revolution. Some of what is to be stated is factual and based on memory and some is based on anecdotal information which may bring these folks to life! Hopefully this story will not get to boring. Some things will be left out, because of the need for brevity. The high points will be hit. So here we go!
