Not quite a novice genealogist, but started researching my family when I was 13 as a Girl Scout merit badge. I was hooked. Thanks to a lot of help from family and online contributors, etc. I have been able to put my history together.Thirty years and counting. I currently concentrating on my Irish ancestors. Once a roadblock, the names are filling in.

I follow the Find A Grave rules on transfer of memorials. I trust those creating memorials would do the same for me, I'm a fair person.

My main interests are all over at this time, currently finding and tracing my Bishop family from Virginia. I have their names, looking for their graves across America.
