Family History

I've been getting back into my family history work. There is so much to find, but it's super exciting when you find new stories and history. It's also important as members of

The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints to do Family History, because we give our ancestors the opportunity to accept these sacred covenants on the other side if they choose to.

She passed away in March of 2002.

These are all her daughters. She had 5 daughters and 2 sons (they didn't live very long).
