Background information:
Brief speaking/genealogical bio: Resident Bend since 1964.
Retired school librarian; member Bend Genealogical Society.
Have
traveled extensively in U.S. searching original sources for family
history. I first began researching family about 1967, first
with
family elders and papers then in libraries. Later I traveled
further and because my husband’s ancestors arrived early in
New
England and remained there 200 years, I acquired much experience in
searching those records. I have spoken at BGS, DAR State
Conference and GCO Conference.
