I am a retired Teacher, with a master's in English, French, and Spanish, teaching 5-12 and at the University level and worked as a legal assistant. Along with teaching during the last 5 decades, I actively was involved in world travel, historical research, photography, and genealogy.

My purpose here is for only one result. Having researched my family lines, I wish to manage the most precious memories on Find A Grave of my family and only my family. Unfortunately, I have found many inaccuracies on personal records and I endeavor to correct, edit, and add historical information as a member of family has the capability to do. I am particularly interested in information regarding the Hansen,
Gates, Thomas, Van Gelder, Voorheis, Howland, Smith, Beach lines in the Lapeer, Michigan area. Also the Varnell, Thomas, Johnson lines in Sevier County, Tennesse.
