For the last 35 years I have been researching my family's history - it started with simple trips with my mother to Iowa where she had been born and raised, and eventually became an all-consuming joy working on both my parent's ancestry.

I am single, in my 60s and have lived in Minnesota since I was 6 months old (born and spent the first 6 months in Michigan).

Both of my parents are gone now, but my desire to keep adding information, linking memorials for parents, spouses and children, and making any needed corrections for as long as I can think straight and type on a keyboard.
