Compendium of Family Biographies, Stories and Videos For My Carringer Line

 Over four decades, I have done genealogical research for my ancestry, and have found quite a bit of information about my ancestral families.  Over the past two years, I have written and published genealogical sketches for each couple in my ancestry back through my 3rd great-grandparents, plus additional sketches for my Carringer line and selected Revolutionary War ancestors. 

From the genealogical sketches have come AI-assisted biographies based solely on the sketches, and from the biographies have come AI-assisted ancestor life memoirs and stories for each person or couple. Finally, I have used Google NotebookLM to create infographics, video overviews and slide decks for the biographies and many of the stories.  

The purpose of this blog post is to collect the information for each of my ancestral Carringer families in one compendium:

1)  My parents:  Frederick Walton Seaver Jr. (1911-1983) and Betty Virginia Carringer (1919-2002):

*  Story:  "Betty and Fred's Story" Series listed in Randy's AI and Genealogy.

* Slide Presentation:

2)  My Grandparents:  Lyle Lawrence Carringer (1891-1976) and Emily Kemp Auble (1899-1977):

============================

A benefit of creating these AI-assisted stories is that I have learned much more about the lives of my Carringer ancestors. I've learned more about their families, their communities, their education, their work, their community activities, their entertainment and fun.  Each person and family experiences unqiue historical and family events throughout their lives, and these stories capture at least some of them.  

One of the benefits of creating this compendium is seeing where I've missed a biography, a memoir, a story, a poem, a song, a video, or a slide presentation.  I will try to fill in those "blanks" as time permits, and update this compendium.
