I first became interested in family history in high school when I had an assignment to create a family tree. While interviewing some relatives, one had the response "WHO WANTS TO KNOW???" which, of course, made me quite interested in what family secrets we might have. Over the years I've had more and less time to spend tracing my roots, and the roots of others in my life. My husband and I recently (2015) took a road trip in which we visited several cemeteries known to be the final resting grounds for some of our ancestors. We were able to add some photos, memorials, and fulfill some photo requests as well. I find filling in the blanks very satisfying.
