I have been researching my family for the past 15 years. I started when my mother asked me to find her Dungans. We only knew the names of her parents and her grandparents and the first name of her great grandmother. All her cousins and aunts and uncles had either grownup and moved away or had passed away. Her memory was alive with these people and her love of them had stayed in her heart and memory all that time. At first the search was difficult but then the doors opened and a flood of information began to appear. First we met one cousin and then others. The last time she had seen them was when they were little kids. Some 70 years later we know about 300 of the family members and enjoy the search even more. Findagrave has enable us to find their resting places. It is so important to know where they are. It gives you that "all is well" feeling.
