Welcome!

Harvey Lewis & Pearl May (Williams) Pointer ca. 1906

Welcome to the Pointer Family from Story County, Iowa website and blog. Yes, the title lacks creativity, but it gets the job done. I decided to take a previous blog that I started for just the Pointer Farm Books called "Pearl's Day Books" and incorporate it into a general family history site and blog for the Pointer family and allied families so that everything can be found in one place for all researchers. Pearl (Williams) Pointer kept the farm's books and wrote down every penny made and spent and what it was made and spent on. While a diary of her innermost thoughts would've been nice [a genea-girl can dream], these farm books do give us quite a bit of information of the family, allied families, neighbors, and such as will become evident with each post from the farm books. Other blog posts will just be information from my father-in-law's personal family archives, and information that I've managed to find in my research of the family. Enjoy! ~Caroline Martin (Marshall) Pointer
