Welcome to blish.org. This site was created for Blish family members surfing the net. I hope you enjoy your visit! If you have any ideas for additional content that you think might improve the blish.org site, I would love to hear about them. You can contact me here:

webmaster@blish.org

There is a great deal of directly Blish-related genealogical information on the site: You'll find images of family members, naval vessels, artifacts, wills and deeds, inventions, timelines, family tree diagrams and much more as you browse through the database of Blish family members and their ancestors.

Blish family members have served in almost every US conflict from the American revolution, through the civil war (on the Union side, I'm very pleased to note), until today. They have commanded platoons, large military bases, submarines, and strategic space assets.

Our family has also been directly involved in pioneering technologies including milling, radio, navigation, image processing, machine learning, expert systems, computer design, computer software engineering, and hydrology.

All of this information has been arranged so you can travel up and down the family tree easily. You can also search for specific family members across many generations.

I hope you enjoy your visit; if you're a Blish, or related to a Blish no matter how indirectly, please take a moment to email me using webmaster@blish.org — I would be delighted to hear from you. I can also use scans and photos of old family photos, artifacts, and so forth. Tell me what the image(s) show and I'll see to it they get into the database for everyone's benefit.

As these things are lost, more often than not, they are lost forever; if we can get them online here and in the database you can be assured there will be a permanent historical record in digital form that no set of unfortunate circumstances can destroy, as everything here, as with all websites on the net, ends up in the Internet Archive and elsewhere.

We have unlimited storage space for images and data, so please, consider contributing copies of your images and scans to this collection of Blish family history.
