I am a professional genealogist, a member of DAR and founding President of a county genealogical society. I also write a weekly genealogy column for a local newspaper. I've been researching for almost 30 years, and am willing to transfer to family members. If the deceased is a member of my family, we can compare notes to see who has the closer connection. I will also consider transferring to others who knew the family when no family members can be found. If you want to send an edit, please send documentation and the Memorial # for the individual. If you want a transfer, please provide your fag #.

I often shake my head at those members who refuse to admit that census, marriage records and obits are not only a great help to those researchers but is a documentation for the person's biography. I will continue to supply those to those memorials I come across because or the validity of the information. To depend upon family written 'bios' without documentation to verify have proven many times to be inaccurate. Family stories on some occasions have been inaccurate in their efforts to protect the family from any embarrassing events. Family tradition stories need verification, thus my insistence to provide what I can. Don't ask me to remove it, it's not gonna happen!

By working together, we can all find the real truth about our families, warts and all!

Happy hunting!

Genealogy:
They may not
be your ancestors.
But they matter
to somebody.
