Bio

From Williamson County Illinois, and fairly familiar with the locations of the nearly 300 cemeteries within the county. Having access to the GIS Mapping system, I find it useful in identification and locating many of these numerous sacred burial grounds.

I have always had an interest in history, especially when it comes to the Williamson and Franklin County, Illinois, area. My greatest interest is in church histories and in garnering the spiritual aspect of many of our ancestors. I figured, that I without a doubt know where I am headed in my eternal afterlife, that through understanding the spiritual genealogical path of our ancestors, I am able to better understand what brought us this far. Faith, Family and Friendships are the fundamental foundations to life. Celebrating and ascertaining a better understanding of them is our purpose.

I will be the first to suggest that mistakes are made, and through the guidance and learning provided by others, ones mistakes may be corrected. Thus, feel free to point out my mistakes, offer solid proof that I am wrong and always please SOURCE YOUR INFORMATION. HE SAID, SHE SAID, THEY SAY, I SAY, MY WAY, OR NOW WAY is merely elements of ignorance. I am the first to not follow instructions point out faults of the program and give in to guidance.
I want perfection and in doing so the Findagrave program excels as a result.

Genealogy for me is like a ride at the county fair...You get on, you spin like no tomorrow, you get off the ride and you ramble on in confusion about who is married to who, what child belongs to him or her, and just need to close the file folder, walk away and come back to it on an entirely different day. I am so glad, I began our family genealogical trek research at the age of 40 instead of waiting to the age of 140, when confusion is the norm, steadfast in ones ways is the must, and merely confusion is the diagnosis and merely the dismay.
