Hello Vinet Clan. I’m happy that you’re here visiting and learning about your relatives.

I started this project from an idea of helping my brother connect with his newly found family. He has no idea just how large of a family we are. That is why I felt the word “clan” suited us well.

I’ve been interested and fascinated about our family history every since I bought my first book on genealogy. I was in grade 5. I started asking questions about my grandparents ( I never got to know them), aunts and uncles and cousins. When I realized just how big our family was, I wanted to get to know each and every one of them.

Alas, that didn’t happen with my aunts and uncles although I do remember meeting each of them at least a few times.The memories I have of them were good but short. I never really got to meet many of my cousins and I feel that is sad.

Now with the internet and social media, I am giving it another try. So far, I’ve connected with quite a few of you and I’m really excited. I’ve also started to look for some relatives by doing some internet searches. I’ll let you know how that goes.

I’d love to hear your thoughts, ideas about this project. Also, I’d love it if you could send some photos with the story behind it so that we could share it with the rest of the family.
Think of this as a giant scrapbook that you’ll be able to share with your future relatives in the years to come.

Welcome to the Vinet Clan.
