I was born in Omaha, NE and grew up in Missouri Valley, IA. I currently live in Cripple Creek, CO and have family scattered across this nation and overseas.
I joined mainly to locate ancestors and learn about my family history. It has become a much larger task than I ever anticipated and have been utilizing the wealth of information from so many other sources to be able to pass on to my children and grandchildren just what roots they have, as well as my own. It has also been rewarding to seek out information for others from time to time and pass on what I learn from here as well as genealogical sites.
