Born and raised in Davenport, (Scott County)Iowa, but my McCoy roots come from Centerville, (Appanoose County)Iowa where my Dad was born as well as the previous three generations of my family. Today I live in Olathe (Johnson County) Kansas.

I got into genealogy specifically to find information about my grandfather, who died before I was born. But it took off from there, and I ended up finding information going all the way back to Ireland in the 1600's. Now, I work to keep the memories of my family alive, and to help others with their research as much as I can.
