My Genealogy Journey!
\n<\/span><\/h1>\n

 <\/p>\n

I started doing genealogy many years ago.  At first it was just some mysteries that intrigued me. Then I became hooked like many others. Today I do research almost daily.   However, I often focus on someone else’s mystery.  So, I don’t make as much progress on my own family as I would like.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

My passion is for people’s stories, but I am also careful not to create too much of their story myself.  Putting together pieces of the puzzle logically and filling in the blanks without too many assumptions can be a challenge.  Sometimes it is a logic puzzle that needs to be solved, sometimes it requires studying history, sometimes you have to take a fresh look at everythings, and sometimes it requires challenging what everyone else believes.<\/p>\n
