I joined several years when I started to seriously search for my ancestors. I immediately went to my father's memorial which showed only my stepmother who was with him for the last 10 years of his life. I decided then that not only would I add mom to his memorial, but find and add the rest of my ancestors. That has been and continues to be a challenge with trips to cemeteries, phone calls to others, and emailing relatives.

My goal is for future genealogists will find their ancestors that were so difficult for me to find.
