I've been an amateur genealogist for 20+ years. I am the current vice president of Marshfield Area Genealogy Group. The purpose of this blog is to share the stories, pictures, and information I've collected over the years with family and friends. The majority of the information will be focused on Wisconsin families with some branches extending into neighboring states, New England, the UK, Norway, and western Europe.
