Footsteps To Our Past: Getting to know our Ancestors ONE by ONE













As time moves forward, so do the ways we gather and share the stories of those who came before us. Researching my family history brings me real joy, and I love discovering pieces of the past and shaping them into something meaningful. For a long time, I kept a lot of information here, but most of it was simply data, names, dates, and places without the stories that truly bring a life into the light.

I have felt inspired to create a better way to share the experiences, memories, and moments that shaped our ancestors. Because of that, I have removed the information from this page. Everything can now be found on FamilySearch, Ancestry, and other places. They are not complete and they may never be, but they offer a foundation that helps us understand the lives our ancestors once lived.

This season of my life does not give me as much time as I would like to work on these stories, but I hope to find a better balance. I want to create something that helps us know our ancestors not only as names on a page, but as real people with real joys, struggles, and faith. Their stories deserve to be remembered, and I look forward to sharing them as I am able.
