I have been interested in family history since I was 12 years old. My mom started researching the surname Hole shortly before that and I jumped right in with her. On my moms side of the family I am researching Hole, Wallace, Morgan, Maxwell, Helwick, Hissong, Lowe, and Newman. (Those are the main ones) On my dads side I am researching Wells, Ferrell, Peele, and Dozier. I am also looking for Solono's in the Phillipines as my great-grandfather (Wells) married a woman with that last name, but have not gotten far with that one. I am the Corresponding Secretary for the Washington County Iowa Genealogical Society. If you would like my help with research on a memorial I have put up I would ask that you please consider making a donation to the WCGS, as if it were not for the resources available there I would not be able to add this information. I am also a regional representative for the Iowa State Genealogical Society and the Librarian and Registrar for the Washington ( Iowa) Chapter Daughters of the American Revolution.
