Born in Bay City, Texas to William Ray Wyatt and Dorothy Evelyn Brown, I lived in various locales in Texas all my life until 2003 when I married a Missouri man and moved to Camden County, MO where my grandfather was born.

I am a family historian concentrating on Wyatt, Wilmot, Brown, Bryan, Bradley, Meyer, Obenchain, Converse and Clinton lines.

I retired from IBM after 30 years of service and was a high school math teacher for 7 years prior to that.

I love to browse and make photographs in old cemeteries and a few years ago founded a perpetual fund for the Brown Cemetery established 1861 in Camden County, MO on the farm of my great-great grandfather, Lewis Sinclair Brown; I have also repaired tombstones there and added markers where needed.
