Bio

My interest in genealogy began as a teenager when my Mother would take me to help place flowers on our deceased relatives graves. I started putting together a list of people in our family. Then as time progressed I found family pictures and newspaper clippings my Mother had saved. In his latter years, my father started searching cemeteries for more relatives. One thing lead to another and I started working on our family tree. This of course lead me more into genealogy. After my father died, I found Find A Grave which I have been doing through the years by documenting and photographing relatives headstones and grave sites. And now with the help of my friends on Find A Grave this tradition continues.
