I am a Roman Catholic priest currently serving as pastor of Saint Philip the Apostle Church in Franklin, Tennessee. I was born and raised in Chattanooga, Tennessee, attended Notre Dame High School graduating in 1973, graduated from St. Meinrad Seminary College in St. Meinrad, IN, in 1977. I started graduate studies in Thelogy in Rome, Italy at the Gregorianum University, and completed studies at The Catholic University of America in 1982. I received my Doctor of Ministry in Homiletics at The Aquinas Insititute of Theology on the Campus of St. Louis University in 2011.

I have been "digging up relatives" since 1973.

I am currently involved in two major projects: First: creating a history of and linking all family members of those buried at Calvary Cemetery in Nashville, Tennessee. Second: Researching the 12 original families who established St. Philip Church in Franklin over 150 years ago.

Because I have access to the records at Calvary Cemetery, I am happy to assist anyone researching family members buried there.
