Bio

Currently retired (3rd time) and have found ancestry an interesting passtime. After researching my Mother's side of the family (got back to early 1800's) and Father's side of the family (got back to mid 1600's) I started the same process of researching my wife's family. I have had limited sucess because they all came from Poland and many records were lost/misplaced/destroyed during WW2.

This research has transitionally led me to graveyards. which has actually given me a different perspective regarding gravesites. Taking photos and posting the information to "the world" on the internet is not only a passtime for me, it has become a sort of "fudicary" responsibility. Friends, family and loved ones of those buried sometimes find comfort and relief in viewing these photos and it is mine and others responsibility to present true and accurate data for those folks.
