I have been doing genealogical research since the early 1980's, having developed an interest in "finding out more about my roots" after my father died. Since then, I have spent hundreds of hours and traveled thousands of miles in search of my elusive ancestors.

The "thrill of the hunt" keeps me trudging onward and it is an enjoyable and enlightening hobby. I joined Find A Grave several years ago and have been amazed at the very rapid growth in its database of graves around the world.
