This blog is for the family/descendants of John Arthur Swinson and Gracia Minnie Schlie, and the extended families that have grown from their children.
I was compelled to create this blog after procrastinating for the past couple of years by the recent death of my grandmother Elisabeth Sharp. I hope to grow this blog to better help all the family members connect and keep in touch with each other. While we have seen each other in the past, we seem to see less of each other and I have recently discovered the true value I place on family and the relationships with them. I would like to see this blog grow with photos, stories and much more from the past to the current and future. I have worked on ways to be able to secure sections so that we can post e-mails and addresses to better stay in touch. I would like to also eventually open it so that family members can post on it if to say nothing more than to look at their updated site. I have added a link to my family's blog and invite you to look at it.
John A. Swinson was the priest at All Saints Episcopal Church St. Thomas, US Virgin Islands from 1927 to 1953, Canon of the Cathedral, Vicar General and Archdeacon of the Virgin Islands. He was also the founder of All Saints School.
They had seven children: (in no particular order)

Good job Eric! Hope we can get to the point where everyone can post their own info, so you don't have to do it all.
