Married, with 2 adult children, I am a retired museum educator/history curator (20 yrs), then an admin. assistant. I've been researching my ancestors for over 30 yrs. Member of Daughters of the American Revolution (NSDAR). Family surnames include DeLong, Leonard, Hicks, Norton, Costello, Kennedy, Loftus, McNally, Ryan, Reglin, Schroeder, Schultz, Heiden, Klinowski, Kostka and Bogdanowicz. I am a volunteer with the Troy Irish Genealogy Society (TIGS). I am an officer and active member of the all volunteer group, Friends of Oakwood Cemetery (Troy, NY). I love to read, bake, and go birding. I lead many of the History-based tours at Oakwood. I have been known to spend several hours searching for a specific grave to fulfill a photo request here IF it is for genealogical purposes. I'm not about the numbers!
