I am a retired teacher, farmer, and Sears sales associate. I've been working on my family's history for more than forty years. I am a graduate of Bowling Green State University in Bowling Green, Ohio, with majors in English and American History. I have an MA in American Studies from the same university. A father of two grown sons, I live with my wife on our century farm fifteen miles southeast of Toledo, Ohio.
