About Us

We're Don and Pat (Patterson) Egen.  Both of us are Miami, Florida born and raised.  Our home now is Chattanooga, TN. It's fun living somewhere that we can enjoy seasons.  Both of us are computer  professionals.  Pat is the owner and President of Patricia Egen Consulting and Don is Chief Scientist. Pat's first son works for her as a Consultant and her second son is an architect with the Smith Group in Phoenix Arizona. 

Since Pat has gotten hooked on the genealogy bug, it was the primary reason this site was created.  It is a way to share the family origins we have already researched with others.  However, we have lots of other interests and you can find some of them listed on our Favorite Sites page.  Again, welcome to our "home" and enjoy the visit.



Here's some great thoughts to live by.  Seen on a t-shirt in Hawaii:

Maui Rules 

  • Never judge a day by the weather. 
  • The best things in life aren't things 
  • Tell the truth - there is less to remember. 
  • Speak softly and wear a loud shirt. 
  • Goals are deceptive - the unaimed arrow never misses. 
  • He who dies with the most toys - still dies. 
  • Age is relative - when you're over the hill you pick up speed. 
  • There are two ways to be rich - make more or desire less. 
  • Beauty is internal - looks mean nothing. 
  • No Rain, No Rainbows!
