We are Pat & Lael Taft, originally from Lincoln, Nebraska. Since leaving Lincoln in 1961, we have lived in Newton, IA, Glastonbury,  CT, Springfield, VA, (a Washington DC suburb), back to Newton, IA and have since retired to sunny Surprise, Arizona, in a community called Sun City Grand; an active adult community.

Lael and Pat Taft

Since retiring to Arizona, Lael has spent much time working on the Family Tree. Many of the following pages and links are devoted to Lael's family tree and photos of the family. Although he has created this page about his family, he by no means takes credit for all the information contained therein, having gathered the family tree information from many family members and relatives. The photos are from family albums dating back to the early 1900's. To go directly to our family tree, click the link below. 

Lael has also been busy developing a website for former Maytag employees to keep in touch. To view the MAYTAG page, click on Old Lonely's hat below
