The Foundation Website on the Internet has become increas-ingly popular since its beginning in 1996. Many of its 30,000 visitors were researchers who had never heard of the Foun-dation before. They were surprised to find their family recorded there, and equally surprised to find that they have kinsmen all across the United States and Canada, plus 20 other nations around the world. It's no surprise that they have become some of the Foundation's most ardent supporters.
The Foundation Manuscript, begun in 1941 by Arlee Gowen and now on the Internet, has grown to over 10,000 pages of family lore. The collec-tion, augmented daily by family histo-rians pooling their research with the Foundation, has grown rapidly since the ad-vent of the Internet. The research deals with branches of the family in over 50 different spelling varia-tions.
