I was born in 1983 in Springfield, MO, and have spent my life near the same area in Southwest Missouri! When I'm not working or raising my 4 kiddos with my awesome husband Andy, I love researching my family tree. My immediate roots are right here in the Ozarks, as well as up in north Missouri (St. Joseph/Buchanan & Andrew County area), and those roots extend farther into the past all the way up to Canada, over to Philadelphia, Tennessee, and across the ocean to Ireland, England, Switzerland, Germany, and France. Getting a glimpse into the lives of the people who make up my ancestry is endlessly fascinating to me.

I've also been a member of Find A Grave for a decade, but forgot the password to my old account and had to make a new one. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
