Bruce D. Despain is known as a world class genealogist, who for several years concentrated on interests in science and linguistics leading to the production of this website. His most widely acknowledged expertise is principally in the analysis of the genealogical data as it presents a historical and demographic context that drives the direction of continued research efforts. His accreditation and deepest experience has been in the records of Pennsylvania, New York, and Germany. However, you may quickly discover evidence in the biographical and genealogical collection on this website that his work is hardly confined to those areas. His own lineages have been particularly vulnerable to his thorough analysis, so that any relatives on these lines will find themselves fortunate that he pursues this work so assiduously. | |||
