I'm a small town girl born and raised in Lebanon, Oregon. I now live in Salem, Oregon's capital. My parents have both passed, my mother most recently, just a few months ago.

The loss of both of my parents has driven me to seek out what I don't know about my ancestry. So I have been working on my families genealogy project and stumbled upon this site quite by accident.

Since then, I have found many memorials of my relatives and have been able to fill in the gaps. Find-a-grave is a very worthy site. I have to say that I am utterly fascinated at the history contained within these pages! Hats off to all who contribute. I have found a wonderful and worthwhile hobby! If I can be of help to anyone who has requests in my area, please let me know.
