Hello. I've been doing Genealogy research for my own family since I was 12. At that age, I had so many questions about my ancestors, questions that couldn't be answered. In those days, we didn't have the computer, so I would make my parents take me to the local Historical society where I would sit for hours searching the microfilm for clues. Genealogy was only a hobby for me up until 4 years ago, when I lost my job as a Manager for a nationwide woman's clothing store. It was a blessing in disguise for me, as I found doing what I loved, which was Genealogy, could be it's own career. I have been working with my local Historical society doing freelance work, as well as Transcribing records for L.D.S., and doing freelance work in my local area, as well as photographing headstones.  I've gone to Europe 5 times tracing my Ancestors, was able to stand at the Baptismal bowl where my Gr.Grandfather was baptised. That was amazing, I can say I actually felt a connection to my ancestors at that point.
