About Me

     Welcome! I’m so glad you are here!

Let me share a little about myself. I am a ……

       Wife.

       Mom.

       Genealogist.

       Crafter.

       Coffee Drinker.

       Reader of all things.

 

I started researching my family as a “little” summer project with my kids. That was seven years ago.  I have learned some amazing things about my family.  I have made many like minded genealogy enthused friends along the way.  Meeting distant cousins has been a highlight of my research efforts.  Researching the past has taught me the technology of the present.

 

I blog here at Are You My Cousin? to share the stories of my ancestors and my search for them.  I hope by sharing my story, I can help another researcher along the way.

 

In my Are You My Cousin? shop at Etsy.com you will find unique custom items I create using an individual’s family photographs: Coasters, Necklaces, Key Chains, Wine Glass Charms and more. In addition to a fun creative outlet,  I discovered my creations are great conversation starters. People are curious about a photo presented in a unique way.

Browse the Are You My Cousin? shop and let me know if I can create something for you.
