Becoming a genealogist for me was simple. It began with a desire to learn more about myself. Why do I think the way I think? Why do I feel the way I feel? I know that my life and my character and my personality have all been shaped by my parents. This means, of course, that they were shaped by their parents who were also shaped by their parents, and so on. It was important, then, for me to discover as much as I could about those people we call 'ancestors' because only then could I realize how exactly I came to be the person I am today.
