We’re glad you stopped by. Take a look around and tell us what you think.
You are welcome here. All of us are from diverse backgrounds and interests, but we share common goals – we want to find out more about the Cloud family heritage, we want to preserve that heritage and we want to make it available to all of our family.
If you are interested in learning about the Cloud family or want your children to know about their ancestry, if you want to meet people from different family branches, we would like to meet you – Join us.
We will soon celebrate our 40th anniversary and we’re going strong. We have reunions (Gatherings), provide on-line resources and publish a quarterly Journal.
Members receive the CFA Journal and Gatherings/Reunions are held where you can meet your close and distant family and enjoy the activities and speakers available for you there.
There are many on-line resources available for people interested in the Cloud family. We have a Facebook page where you can share with others and the Cloud family was one of the first to participate in genealogy on the internet, and its email forum and bulletin board were one of the first at rootsweb (previously at Maiser at Indiana University).

State representative Cody Harris has filed a bill that would have serious, detrimental effects on genealogy research. The bill is HB 703 and is entitled "Relating to the confidentiality of birth records". It will prohibit viewing birth and death records which are at the present time available to genealogists. Birth records will be hidden for 125 years and death records for 75 years.
This is a step backward, and may be an attempt to align with the European GDPR.
If you are a serious researcher, please contact your Texas representative to protest this bill.
(Thank you Cecil Stokes for bringing this to our attention.)

Scientists have launched a vast project to map the genetic code of all 1.5 million known species of complex life on Earth, aiming to complete the work within a decade.Roberta Estes has written a blog post about the newly named Big-Y SNPs:

"Only $499" -- it's true. It was a big expense for me, but it has shown me more recent branches of our Cloud line. Family Tree DNA is offering the Big-Y test for $499 as part of their Father's Day special. The sale ends June 18. If you are a Cloud male and can afford it, your test could help us discover more recent SNP mutations that would provide even more recent definition (delineation) of our Cloud surname.
