Welcome! 

Welcome to the Riddick and Lapina families genealogy web site. We encourage participation from all family lines, whether or not you are in a direct line or related through marriage, adoption, etc. The main lines currently covered are: Riddick, Lapina, Darby, Coplen/Copeland, Tatum, Baroni, Zanoni, Clark, Morse, and Marrs. 

This site will be a place for all family members and other researchers to collaborate on family research. It is also a place for the families to share information about family events and other news of interest to all. Use this site and its tools to help you in your personal genealogy research. What you find and learn may help someone else if you share your information. There are some common names across the lines we are currently researching. The really interesting aspect of sharing this information is finding potential loops in our ancestry where family lines were once connected, then diverged only to reconnect generations later.

The site is currently under construction, but please explore and provide feedback on what is working and what isn't working.
