I am a retired Postal Plant Manager, Postmaster, and U. S. Navy during Vietnam. Wife of 58 years, three kids and three grandsons. Our family book was started when I attended the National Bowling Tourn in Salt Lake City, UT several years ago. I visited the LDS Family History Library, learned some basics of genealogy and purchased my first piece of software from their bookstore. Since then, our family book is 300 pages and 25000 names in the databases. I have been to hundreds of cemeteries, libraries and many family reunions. We try to visit each year KY, TN and NC where many of our families are/from and many other families that settled in Mid-Missouri.
