Cousin Voices

Unique Writings, Memoirs, Poetry and Essays 
Authored By Members of the Extended Family

 

With tens of thousands of lives represented in the extended family of ours', there are an equal number of voices, each with myriad stories to tell. The authorship of memoirs and autobiographies is an outstanding way to let future generations know about your life experiences, and memories of the lives and times of other loved ones. 

This special page on our website is devoted to providing an outlet for these voices to express views on a wide variety of topics. It contains a list of the writings that our cousins have entrusted to Minerd.com for publishing. It is arranged in alphabetical order by the authors' last names.
