A Ward Family History Consultant

Perry McArthur was recently called as a Ward Family History Consultant.  His own family line varies widely.  He has Hawaiian, Comanche, South American and European ancestors.  His South American ancestors immigrated to Mexico where they were seamen who, in their sea voyages, jumped ship in Hawaii, where he was raised.  There were not many active members in his family.  When Perry was to be ordained a High Priest, he called upon his uncle to ordain him.  This uncle was known as the family historian.  At the same time Perry was called to be a Ward Family History Consultant, his uncle passed away.  He knows he has been called to take over as the family historian for his uncle.  As a very young man, Perry sat with his Hawaiian grandfather who wrote down all the grandfather's siblings.  He kept the paper and that has become the only record of the grandfather's family, because no one else knew about the grandfather's history.  Since his grandmother is of Comanche heritage, only direct line ancestors are available to posterity. Perry would not be able to access the information on his Hawaiian grandfather's family if it weren't for his grandfather giving it to him as a young man.  Perry is anxious to work on his new responsibilities.
