Since I was child my Grandmother would take me with her to the archives library to look through newspapers or directories on microfiche, searching and trying to uncover the mystery or just the unknown always had an edge of excitement, when I would locate what I was given to find, whether it was the same day or 6 weeks later, the excitement and the knowing or seeing it was all I needed. I have expanded my knowledge and search of trying to uncover the unknown that is hiding in our past just waiting. I have meet extended family who have been able to fill in the blanks I have been unable to find. This has lead me on my journey not only to keep searching for my past or others, to dig a little deeper, but to help those who are far away, but need answers that could be at my finger tips if only I knew someone needed the answer.
