I was born and raised in Western North Carolina. I grew up listening to my grandparents sing in Church and telling stories of their growing up years. They instilled in me a love of family and home.I have deep roots in these mountains that I love. I am fascinated by genealogy and love uncovering new links to my past and answering questions about why I am who I am. I hope to contribute as much as possible to this group.
