History of Kanelly, Roache, Pike, Baskas, Barry: Pioneers and Generation 1, a new book by Richard S. Baskas, Ed.D., has been released by Dorrance Publishing Co., Inc.

History of Kanelly, Roache, Pike, Baskas, Barry chronicles the history of Richard Baskas' paternal mother's side of the family, who were Irish, including as many family members as possible. This book started from scratch, as Richard had no idea how to get started in genealogy. He and his brother grew up in another family, and they had always wondered who was in their family and who they were related to. He has spent many years trying to find what information he could to connect all the dots. This particular version of this history is composed of many newspaper articles that were never included in other versions. Learn all about this family tree and how Richard and his family are all connected!
