Terms of Use:

These life stories are of my own creation, unless otherwise indicated.  Please feel free to share any of mine with relatives or post them on your family website.  Notifying me first is not necessary.  I do ask that my name, Mary Andersen, remain included as the author.  A link back to this website would be appreciated, but is not required.  You are not, however, permitted to use them for commercial purposes.

The exception to these terms is the ongoing life story of Isaac Brewer (1763-1852), as it has taken hundreds of hours to write and I am planning to make it into a published paperback and eBook eventually.  So please don't re-post it anywhere else online.  Just post a link to where I have posted it if you wish to share it online.
