I began researching my family history over 20 years ago. What started out as simple curiosity has evolved into a full-blown passion. I have met so many wonderful people who have generously shared their genealogical research and family photos with me over the years. At some point you realize your family truly has no boundaries; a past where you can never reach the beginning and a future that sees no end. Beyond that, a global family; a diverse worldwide community where many people have forgotten their distant ancestry, but are interconnected nevertheless, sometimes in very surprising ways. Thank-you, Find-A-Grave, for allowing me the opportunity to "give" back!
