For several years I have wanted to create our Family Tree/History, so here  is my first try. I have gathered all our information from family members or  from researching our family records and pictures. As you will probably notice, I  may have missed some dates and names, but this is a work in progress  and I would like to get your help. 
  
 If you have any additional information, or would like to be added please feel  free to contact me at the email address I created for the family tree:  twansao01@comcast.net with your info you want to share or pictures.

Also, try all the different links from the menu bar above. You are all welcome to  print out different types of family charts. Please invite other family members to see  this website from the Invitations link in the tools menu above, as I do not have  everyone's email.

Finally, a big Thank You to my mom (Elvira F Olivas) for taking 
pictures all these years and also to all family members for sharing.

p.s. this site works best with highspeed, dialup can be used, but is much slower.  
 Sincerely,

Tom Olivas
