Hello, and thank you for stopping by.
I am a genealogist who is also an adoptee. On this site I share research into my biological, adoptive, and marital lines. Because I also research family histories for other people, I occasionally share insights from that work. And finally I try to share any tips or hints or information I think might help others as they embark on the discovery of their own family history.
Following are some of the surnames found in our family tree. Because I am adopted I show my blood line (B), my adoptive line (A), and my husband’s line (M):
