Welcome to my genealogy website. It’s taken me over 40 years to collect the information contained within these pages and I’m eager to share with you all of the knowledge, dates and stories I’ve collected over the years. But my efforts are not complete. Nor will they ever be. For our family is forever changing and growing. My most heartfelt wish is that you’ll help me add to this site with your photo’s and stories.

I’ve had a love of genealogy my entire life, rooted in my belief that family is central to a happy life. For me, there is just something good about knowing where and who a person comes from. That sense of being connected to something larger than myself makes me see the wonder and serendipity of everything that had to happen for me to exist.
