I have been researching the Akins, Troutt, and Perry families who are from Sumner County Tennessee. I am also researching the Farnsworth, Woolley, Smith families from New England--Maine and Massachusetts in particular. I have recently been working on the Franck, Boicourt, Robb, Crutchley, and McGrew families of Louisville, Kentucky as well as the cities of Evansville and Indianapolis, Indiana.

Although I have been doing research since the mid-1980s, I am still learning and value all of the help and support I receive from the genealogical community.

Many thanks to Michael Meador and John Heath who have published much of their great work with respect to families in Sumner County Tennessee. Also many thanks to them for their guidance as I learn some new ropes.

Thanks to Shaun Wood who is a DownEaster documenting on families in New England, especially Maine. His guidance has been superb.

I also want to thank all the members of Find-a-Grave who have pain-stakenly photographed and started memorials using their photos along with basic information they find about those buried in our cemeteries.

Feel free to email me if you need any information from the Indianapolis/Greenwood, Indiana area. If I can't give you the information you want, I will certainly try to direct you to the best sources in Indiana.

Blessings to all, happy learning about your roots.
