Graduated from Reed College with a degree in English (creative writing). I'm interested in history and finding out more about my family tree! On my dad's side I'm related to the Silverthorn family and it's so cool to see so much information about them on this site!

I'm trying to figure out more about my mom's side of the family, Bandeira & Moraes families from Brazil, a little harder to track since there's not as much record keeping on my Brazilian side of the family.
