Bio

I started my genealogy research upon inheriting the family tree after a cousin passed in 2012. It's become a passion to unite children with their parents on this site.

I was an environmental analyst and planner in my profession, doing a tremendous amount of writing, citing scientific research all the time; so, attention to detail and finding citations/sources to support facts is critical to my genealogy research. Before requesting changes to a person's information, I thoroughly research that person in my tree to make sure to use the best available information. I am not one to jump to conclusions or to request changes that are not documented.

Those few individuals I've added here were to reunite them with their parents.

My family history begins around the Gallitzin/Cresson area of Cambria County, Pennsylvania. My direct paternal ancestor's surnames are Plunkett, Solan, Reilly, McTamany/McAtamany, Quinn, McAlister, McGarvey, and Farren/Fairns. My direct maternal ancestor's surnames are Angus, Kemerer, Hildebrand, Ribblet, Palovsky, and Schmidt.
