When I moved to Indiana, I thought I had no connection whatsoever to the state, apart from the job that brought me here. Later, I discovered that my great grandmother was born in the county where I now live. That started my fascination with genealogy. I've enjoyed discovering how many of my ancestors are buried within a 15 mile radius of where I live, given that I never planned or expected to live here.
