I grew up in Southwest Oklahoma, but have lived in Shamrock, Texas for 45 years where our family have a farming and ranching operation. I worked as an accountant for a number of years and helped with the farming operation but in the early 2000's I began research my family and made contact with a cousin who had been reseaching genealogy for 40 years and had so much knowledge and information that I began in earnest.

When this cousin began creating memorials on Find A Grave, linking them to parents and past generations, listing children on the memorials, adding photos I decided to add missing family members and friends who did not have a memorials. It gives me satisfaction to accomplish this tribute to those who have gone before.
