About Different Directions
Welcome to `Different Directions`. This is the family tree of the 
Deutschendorf/Swope/Koop/Berry families. It has at least one well known 
celebrity member, namely John Henry Deutschendorf Jr aka John Denver.
There also appears to be a link to another famous name, or maybe I should say 
notorious, as one of the Berry ancestors, James Hamilton Berry claimed a 
relationship to Jesse James, the outlaw. I haven`t yet been able to establish 
what this relationship is but I am working on it.
 
People familiar with John Denver`s work will recognise the origin of the name 
of the family tree as the name of one of John`s albums. I felt it was 
particularly appropriate as the different branches of the family come from very 
different areas and backgrounds, half being of Russian/German decent and the 
other half more typical American pioneers although originally from Europe.

I have really enjoyed researching this family tree and hope to continue to do 
so.
