I have been doing my families' genealogy for about 10 years. I started searching because our children had asked what countries our families had come from originally. And since I love solving puzzles, I began searching and connecting. The more I found the more I wanted to know. I found myself tracing ALL the members. It really does get into a lot of "branches" on the old family tree.

I found that Find A Grave was a great resource with many leads to follow. After contacting a member with a question about a relative of mine, we discovered that we were distant cousins and have enjoyed keeping in touch. She convinced me to join Find A Grave and I am thrilled with the experience. It not only provides me with information but gives me a way to help others in their search. I have gathered quite a lot of information and am now enjoying sharing it.
