I feel like I have been doing genealogy all of my life. While there was some interest evidenced as an eight year old asking mom who my grandparents were, the official beginning was my senior year in high school, nearly 50 years ago, with a letter to my aunt. She gave me enough information that led to many discoveries and whetted my appetite for even more. It has been a satisfying and rewarding hobby through the years. Find a Grave is a very useful site for any skill level. I wish more obituaries were posted on the memorials as they provide research clues. Not only do I enjoy my own family research, but I also enjoy helping others with their research.
