Welcome to our genealogy web site!

The Harbour-Holst Family History is a genealogy site that is a constant work. We do not claim that there is complete accuracy with the information contained. It has been gathered and placed here with the knowledge that as our work becomes more detailed the facts may change. We hope that you will use it with the same skepticism as it was placed on this site. This site is still a work in progress.

There are many reason why one should know their ancestral past as there are many reasons why individuals pursue the practice of genealogy. Of all the most compelling is the need for one to find their place in the scheme of humanity. It is a propensity of our species to give foundation to their being and establish the roots to all the hundreds to thousands of persons that have come before them to place  the composite of their existence in the family gene pool.

The history of all the genealogies given on this web site is rich with men that were soldiers, farmers, craftsmen, businessmen, professionals, and dreamers.  It is filled with the lives of women who nourished their children, whom were the center of the home life and supported  their husbands through good or bad times. A history of life borne with the dignity that has been passed to those of us who bear these family names as their bloodline.

If you are pursuing your genealogical search my wish is that the data, stories, and links offered in this site will be useful to you. Should you have something to add you are welcome to do so through email. Visit with our pleasure of sharing our families with you. I sincerely hope that your journey into your ancestral past is as rewarding an experience as the discovery that is documented on this web site. Thanks for stopping by.

Y'all come back now, hear?
Donald C. Harbour
