Welcome.
If you’ve landed here, you’re probably searching for something. Answers, stories, or connections. Maybe you’re untangling your family tree, or maybe you just like a good mystery that happens to be a few centuries old.
Either way, you’re in the right place.
Whispers Through Time is where I document my personal journey through history, ancestry, and archives. It’s a space where forgotten lives are remembered, and faint traces in old ledgers become full, vibrant stories. I don’t claim to have all the answers, but I do have questions, records, and a deep pull to keep digging.
What You’ll Find Here
Ancestor Spotlight
Real people, real lives, pieced together from records, clues, and the occasional whisper from the past. Some are tragic. Some are uplifting. Some are flat-out weird. All of them mattered.
The Whispers
This is the heart of the site, my blog, where I share stories, discoveries, and the occasional beautiful twist of fate. Some posts are lighthearted (because historical records can be bizarre), others more emotional or deeply personal. But all are pieces of real lives, reclaimed.
Research Notes & Tips
Genealogy isn’t always straightforward. This is where I share things I’ve learned the hard way. What’s worked, what hasn’t, and how I keep going when the trail runs cold.
Surnames I’m Tracing
The family lines I’m following: Benoit, Guitard, McManus, Noseworthy, Lambert, Spry, LeBlanc, Mowat, Targett, Landry, Worrell, Adams, and more. Some names hold centuries of history. Others hide in quiet corners of forgotten towns.
A Note Before You Dive In
I’m not a professional genealogist. I’m a mom of three, a history lover, and someone who can’t ignore the feeling that the people who came before us still have things to say if we’re willing to listen. This site is part history, part personal, and occasionally a little spooky.
You don’t need to believe in ghosts to be here.
But you might leave feeling like some are whispering still.
So start wherever feels right. A surname. A story. A hunch.
And if you recognize a name, think we’re related, or see a piece of your own story reflected here, reach out. I’d love to hear from you.
Either way, I’m so glad you’re here.
