I started doing my family genealogy a number of years ago because I needed a distraction. I work full-time in a hectic family business and found myself seeking peace and quiet and was intrigued by the bits and pieces my relatives knew about their past.

After more than ten years of research, I slowly learned of my early ancestor's hardships and adversities as they faced the challenge of migrating to the United States and their struggle to raise a family.

It seemed the more I researched, the more I wanted to know. Cemeteries, old books and libraries all offer the clues I need to fill in the missing pieces to my family's ancestral puzzle.
