I am working to search our family history, and this family tree is the first step in doing this. I have long wondered the history of our family, and finally decided to do something about it! Thoughout my life I have struggled to understand who I am, why I act a certain way or have a certain trait. As I have gotten older, a little wiser, and definitely grown to a mature woman: I have accepted who I am and just celebrate being me: that being said, connection is extremely important to us all, and in celebrating being me I want to celebrate the history that brought me to this point in my life. My goal is to share the information I find with my family, and invite them all to join in this adventure through time and history to celebrate together our past and our future. There is a saying, Seven Degrees of Separation: I firmly believe in this, we are all connected at some point in our history.
