I am a geologist with 35 years experience, mostly with the U.S. Government and as a consultant. I am also a genealogist with 12+ years of experience and over 24,000 names in my database. My Hedrick-Heyderich roots trace back to Bavaria under the Holy Roman Empire, now Germany. Other names in my database are Duncan, Bird, Murphy, Ashworth, Shelton, Hoppess, and Hege on my father's side and Hubner, Rechtenstein, Seelig, Hell, Roschitz, Allemann, Litzler, Schertzer, Lazarus, and Weber on my mother's side. I continue to update information and occasionally travel to cemeteries and graveyards, mainly during reunions to locate gravestones and meet the relatives. My roots trace back to Europe and mainly include Germany, France, England, Ireland, and Scotland.
