My family, my life, my story. This blog is my record of my search for ancestors here in the United States and their countries of origin. It is also a record of my life and that of my descendants. Genealogy is a long time passion of mine and I hope you will join me. My main surnames of interest are Grashoff, White, Chaffin, Wells, Matzdorff, Fogleman, Stinehart, Omvig. Past, present, and future all come together. Preserving the present is as important as discovering the past.

Kansas City Expos
Brian, Niki, and I are in Kansas City, Missouri! Niki and I have spent the last two days at the Family History Expo Genealogy Convention! We are in Laura Best's class regarding online research! We have had so much fun learning about German research, citing your sources, researching past 1850, using Roots Magic and so much more! I have seen so many people here that I have listened to being interviewed by Lisa Louisa Cooke! This is great!!!

Skill honing!
I am trying to arrange a trip to Kansas City for a genealogy expo that will be held there in July. I am so excited as normally they don't have expos in the midwest! Hopefully I will learn a lot!
