I am married and have two children and five grand children. I was born in Atkinson Illinois, my father was a police officer and then became mayor, he passed away when I was in high school and later in my life when I could ask my mother about family she had become so forgetful that she could not give me answers, upon her death I found written pieces of paper where she had at some time in her life written down these bits of information and so now my interest has become finding all those lost relatives and I am willing to try and help anyone else who may need or want photos or information about their families.
