I started doing genealogy in 1993 and have been actively involved ever since. I love discovering information about my ancestors and making new contacts.

I think it's important to know about my ancestors and to share with my family.

In 2005, a cousin told me we were Mayflower descen-

dants. I couldn't believe what he was saying. So after five years of research I received my first certificate. I have 2 more and am currently working on another line.
