I have been asked, "Where did you get
the funny name for your web site?" Well - it's like this. Some
years back, Betty and I got interested in researching the family name Wahab
- her mother was a Wahab and the name has some notoriety in Eastern North
Carolina with close ties to Ocracoke Island. The name has even
been tied to pirates and such by some folks.
Well, I got so interested in this
genealogy stuff that I started looking into my family name - Whichard - too.
I needed a place to share all this
information so I set up this web site. Have you made the connection
yet? The site name is a combination of the two family names
which(ard)wah(ab).
The site has become a place where I can
share, not only information on our families, but other things as well.
If you look hard enough you can find a spreadsheet where I keep up with my
season tickets to the Carolina Hurricanes Hockey team!
