I have been an avid family researcher since the early 80's, tracing primarily the lines Morris, Stanbery, Potts, Kilpatrick, Pothast, Oltman, Wendt, Soderholm, Bjorklund, Peterson and Bostrom. How much easier it now is with tools like Find A Grave then when we started back in the days with census records on microfilm ordered from far away!! If you make a connection with any of the people I have added to this website, please contact me as I love meeting new cousins!!

As you can tell from my profile picture, I am proud of my family's service to this country, going back as far as the Revolutionary War. I am a direct descendant of Recompence Stanbery and his son Samuel, both of whom are patriots of the American Revolution recognized by both the DAR and SAR. I am also a U.S. Army veteran myself, with service in Viet Nam and on the Korean DMZ.

And last but certainly not least, thanks to my cousin Connie and her husband Guy for a WHOLE lot of the photos you see in my memorials. And also to my classmate Ed Hass for his highly excellent renditions of our high school pictures in the Wildcat virtual cemetery.
