Retired Peace Officer/ Genealogical Consultant.
Have been researching/ compiling family genealogy for over 22 years. It all began when my father needed help on the internet and soon many brick walls were broken. He first introduced me to these challenges in the year 2001. It was so fun helping him that after he passed on, I continued his legacy as a family researcher. I had previously been a Genealogical Consultant at my local library.

I most recently, 7 years ago, started to connect the family at findagrave.com. Most ancestors and relatives had memorials but few were linked to one another. This task I have taken on so that those without a paid subscription to ancestry.com can visit here and freely look at their family.

A special thank you to all the headstone photographers who dedicate their time making this site awesome.

If there is an image on a memorial you'd like me to remove, just let me know, thanks.

~We are the chosen:
In each family, there is one who seems called to find the ancestors. To put flesh on their bones and make them live again, to tell the family story and to feel that somehow they know and approve.
Doing genealogy is not a cold gathering of facts, but instead, breathing life into all who have gone before. We are the storytellers of the tribe. All tribes have one.
We have been called, as it were, by our genes. Those who have gone before us cry out to us: Tell our story. So we do.
In finding them, we somehow find ourselves.
