My name is Diane Schmidt Ellis and I grew up in Springport Michigan. I attended Michigan State University and graduated with a degree in Elementary Education. I moved to Wyoming and taught elementary school for 2 years and then was married and moved to Idaho. I have lived in Idaho ever since. I recently retired from teaching in June 2012 and have decided to resume my passion for genealogy.
