I am retired, living in Arizona in the winter and other places in the summer. I have a great interest in genealogy and am a volunteer at the Mesa FamilySearch Library during the winter season. I spend a lot of time searching for my family roots and use Find-A-Grave frequently. I was raised on a farm in Illinois and graduated with a BS in Engineering from Southern Illinois University in Carbondale, Illinois. My primary genealogical interests are in Illinois and North Carolina.
