I'm the 3rd oldest of 9 kids. We were born on the south side of Chicago and lived in Hyde Park or Beverly as a kid.Since 1985 I've lived,worked and played in Southern California. Some of my hobbies include genealogy/family history, hiking, photography, walking, gardening. (I love roses and vegetable gardening)Joining Find A Grave allows me to pursue several hobbies at once- Walking, Photography, family history and helping people out. A perfect fit:-)
