I have had an interest in family history since the age of 16. I don't know why I got the genie bug so early, but I'm glad I did.

I found it so fasinating resesarching my ancestors and getting a "high" of discovering new information. Then that new information spurred me on even further to dig deeper. What I discovered was an interesting family history that I knew I would want to share some day.

Although my researching was limited during most of my adult years because of family and children, I was able to dedicate a lot more time to my passion in retirement.

In 2010, a life-long dream came true when I published a book called, My Long Family History (528 pages). Now, I'm devoting time to memorializing my ancestors on Find A Grave.
