My need to track my family history and family stories led me deeply into genealogical research. That, in turn, led me to Find A Grave, both as a contributor and a thankful user of what others have contributed.

My primary geographical interests are NW Pennsylvania (Warren, McKean, Elk & Forest Counties), California (Merced & Stanislaus Counties), Minnesota (all over), and Wisconsin (Saint Croix & Polk Counties), though I research all 50 states and around the world as needed. My family "forest" (so much bigger than just one tree) has over 10,000 names. The forest includes research on both my parents' ancestry, the ancestry of both my husbands, and includes anyone who is or was ever related to me (or related to anyone related to me).
