George, Eugene, David, Jim, Joseph, Diane, Barbara, and Helen likely not in this order. Please help, I want to get going on my family tree.
Thank you

Jim Miller had two children, Joe and Kelly.

On the list of children. The following have since passed away: Joe, Anne, Aggie, and Barb.

George married Margaret Heffernan and had 6 children and lived in Riviere Qui Barre, AB.

As far as I have heard. Joe came from Bessarabia, a village in Russia that was German occupied.
