I am an amateur family historian who has found research to be a rewarding way to learn about the people who came before us, preserve their stories, and honor their lives for those who come after. I especially enjoy connecting family members and uncovering photographs, details, and stories that help make a memorial more than just a name and a date.

My family roots stretch from New York and New Jersey through Virginia, North Carolina, Tennessee, Kentucky, Indiana, Mississippi, and Texas. I'm always interested in connecting with others whose family research crosses the same paths, and I'm happy to share information, compare notes, or help with research whenever I can.

I'm grateful for the work others have done to create and care for these memorials.
