Genealogy is my passion! I live in south central Nebraska along the Platte River where the wagons rolled on their way West. Now I can hear the drone of wheels on I-80 as those wagons in the form of cars and semis travel at an amazing speed compared to how our ancestors traveled. I can also hear the Union Pacific trains as they switch (by computer now!) and send their long cars snaking down tracks east and west. Our continent was indeed connected from east to west, forming and shaping the lives of our ancestors and influencing the lives of future generations.

I do professional research, specializing in Nebraska genealogy. In addition I enjoy writing, lecturing and teaching genealogy. Check out my biographical information page.

I hope you enjoy my blog. If there is something that helps you in your research, my mission has been accomplished. Enjoy!
