Below are links to various essays on the Busel and Felson Family members. The essays were organized by Judy Felson Duchan and built upon contributions and collaborations of second generation Felson cousins.
Deserving special tribute is Nancy Felson Brant (1943-2013), who started us out on this path of remembering our past and whose longtime research on our ancestors has helped us uncover and document our Felson Family roots.
