I was born an Air Force brat while my father was stationed at Carswell, AFB in Fort Worth, Texas. From my father I inherited a legacy of Amish-Mennonite history from Maryland and Pennsylvania and from my mother a significant Mormon history from Idaho and Utah. A retired letter carrier and Air National Guard veteran, I now spend much of my time working on family history.
