The purpose for the Cumberland County Genealogical Society Surname Registry and subsequent pages is to allow anyone with ancestral connections to Cumberland County and surrounding area a place to leave a link so others of the same surname may make a connection.
We ask you to leave us with more than just a surname that you are searching, so others may be able to make a connection with specific individuals in a certain time period. Possibly it will cut down on some dead end trails that you have traveled before and lead to a more fulfilling path to your specific family research.
