Retired from the U.S. Public Health Service, I am thoroughly enjoying my new passion of researching my family's ancestry. I'm a bit of a perfectionist, with a love of history, so these qualities are handy when searching for my own and my husband's families. It has been a tremendously enjoyable journey. I've learned so very much about our nation's history and the people who had the courage, faith, and perseverance to raise families and contribute to the welfare of their communities, states, and nation.
