Born in Rock Hill, SC as an Abernathy, the daughter of Norman James Abernathy and Mary Ellen Baker Abernathy. I have one brother Norman James Abernathy Jr. We grew up in Charlotte, NC. and Irmo, SC.

Married John Schmieg in Irmo, SC in 1976, and have four children, one born in Minnesota, one in North Carolina, and two in Texas. I have four grandchildren, two girls and two boys.

My professional background is in Finance and Accounting, with a Master's degree in Management.

The past decade plus, I have lost a great deal of family members, many at young ages. I have a tree on Ancestry, and maintain virtual cemeteries on Find A Grave, so that my children and grandchildren will have information on their ancestors and lineage, and will be able to pass on this information as the generations emerge within our families.
