I got serious about exploring my family history in 2015.

After getting so many research hints about my ancestors from Find A Grave memorials I decided to become a contributor.

I am most interested in creating and maintaining memorials in the main trunk of my tree. If in my research I discover information about individuals on the many branches of my tree and no memorial exists, I will create a memorial. When I have additional information to contribute to an existing memorial I will suggest edits to those memorials. My suggested edits are always well researched.

I come from a large family that came from large families so the surnames I am interested in are many, here are the families and surnames of most interest:

Jones primarily in the Baltimore, MD area with roots in Dorchester County, MD back into the 17th century.

James (changed from Schemm) primarily in the Baltimore, MD area with roots in Germany.

Arthur from the Baltimore, MD area, with roots in Ireland.

Kiessling from the Baltimore, MD area, with roots in Germany.

Sullivan in the Baltimore, MD area with roots in Germany.

Welter in the Rochester, NY area, with roots in Luxembourg

Arbor in the Rochester, NY area with roots in Germany.

Thanks to all who contribute and help other researchers
