I started researching my family roots in 2009 after knee surgery. I thought it (genealogy, not the surgery) would keep me sane during recovery. Wow, was I right! What an addictive pastime. I've 'discovered' two direct third cousins in the UK as well as several cousins here in the states, all of whom have added valuable information to my research.

Family lines I'm researching are WILDE (from England), IVES, BURGAN, DENEHIE, CRIST, TIERKOFF (or TIORKOFF), FRETWELL. Feel free to contact me if you have family of the same name.
