Have lived in Franklin County, Massachusetts my entire life. Have been interested in Ancestry and family roots always, and began researching in 2007. Have numerous roots to early settlers of the Pioneer Valley and Cape Cod. Have found I need to do field trips to break through dead ends in my family tree. I seem to have a hard time leaving a mystery unsolved, and work persistently for answers. Ultimately would love more time to research, and aim to publish a book on some of my ancestors in the future.
