I have been interested in genealogy since 1984 when I discovered my birth mother and full siblings. I was adopted at birth and was always curious about my heritage. Through DNA, family documents and the internet, I have been fortunate enough to connect with other birth family members and share information. Genealogy, history and language is a fascinating way to learn about the time in which our ancestors lived, what they did for a living, and where they lived. As an adoptee, this has been enlightening and enriching for myself, my children, and my grandchildren.

If you are related to any of the people whose memorial I have created, I would love to hear from you. I will happily transfer a memorial of someone related to you (and not to me).

I am happy to investigate gravesites in Victoria, Vancouver, and the Gulf Islands in British Columbia.

Please be kind. We are all in this together.
