Welcome to our “Families Living Bible”.  My name is Kimberley Horn Fram and I have 
created this site to help share the past, laughter, hardships, stories and love with 
other family members.  I moved to Tennessee in 1993 from Washington State leaving 
behind all of my family on the west coast. Coming from a rather large family, I grew 
up with many Aunts, Uncles and beloved cousins. My cousins were more like sisters and 
brothers and my Aunts and Uncles were the next best thing to my Mother and Father. 
Holidays were all spent at Grandma’s house with all the kids and family around her to 
share the love and memories. Because there were so many of us, eating at the 
preverbal “kids table” was an eager awaited treat. I wouldn’t take any amount of 
money for the treasures I have in the back of my memory and in the deepest parts of 
my heart.

Unfortunately, my children were brought to a state where they had NO family or 
friends due to their parents transferring for economic benefits. They have never 
known what a true “family” consist of other than that of our immediate family. They 
have never known what it felt like to run out and swing on the old swing-set with 10 
different cousins next to them laughing and playing or to have an Aunt drop by the 
house just to grab them and spend the day with them.  Their only Grandmother lives 
2200 miles away and although they have the freedom to call her every day, it’s never 
going to be the same as having “Family” near you.

So, as a Licensed Paralegal for the State of Tennessee, I decided to give them 
a “family” to call their own. I started to research my parents and one thing led to 
another. Working at the beautiful Tennessee Capital, I realized I was right next to 
the Tennessee Archives Library too. This helped tremendously in my research. Not to 
mention, it gave me access to most all of the public state records in the nation. As I 
continued my research you can only imagine how I felt when I found out the children 
and I were actually living in the middle of our family history. We started to take 
weekend trips to East Tennessee, Clarksville and South Tennessee to see different 
farms, grave stones, family Bibles, people, churches and different sites that helped 
to add to my children's (AND my) since of “Family” in a place where we had nobody. We 
are currently planning trips to Stone County, MO and Arkansas to find more answers to 
who we are and where we came from.  

Slowly things started to happen that I still believe were in the hands of a higher 
entity. I have met many distant cousins who have opened their arms, home and 
memories to me and my children. God helped bring me to a bigger part of my family 
than I had ever know in my life. He brought me to the HEART of my family. They have 
all been so gracious with their stories, family Bibles, precious photos and hearts 
that I had no other choice than to give all of this love back to YOU.

Thus, this site is dedicated to giving back to my wonderful family what God gave to 
me and my children, the HEART of YOUR/Our family!  It is a living Family Bible that 
will continue to grow as long as all of our cousins continue to give and together- we 
can keep the heart of our loved ones alive in ALL of our children.  All I ask is that 
if you can add to our family PLEASE do for our children's sake, and please sign the 
guest book with your current email so the quarterly “Family” e-magazine can be sent 
to you as well.

~Enjoy

ALL my love,

Your cousin.
