My father got me interest in tracing my family back in the early 1990's. I took the research he did and put it on a computer and provided this information to Family Tree Maker. In 2010, I began to expand the family included and to document my sources.

This led me to Find A Grave where I found valuable information. It gives me a lot of satisfaction when I find the final resting place of a family member and a lot of disappointment when I don't. I appreciate all the work that Find A Grave members have done to make the information and pictures available.
