I was born and raised in South Kingstown, RI, so I'm a genuine Swamp Yankee, from a very long line of Swampers. I've always liked history, puzzles, and mysteries, so doing genealogy just seemed to touch all of those areas.

For the memorials that I manage I've been trying to fill in the blanks of dates, places, and people. I try to add in the individual's parents, siblings and children to give a whole picture of that person. It brings families back together although they have been separated by time and distance. It also takes me on some wicked confusing paths all over the place.

I welcome any additions, corrections, etc. to the memorials, so please feel free to let me know if there are changes I should make to them. If you are a relative and would like to take over management of a memorial, just let me know.

If anyone has management of memorials that they would like to transfer, especially in the Washington County, RI area, I would be glad to take them over and work on them.
