I am an instructor/contributor for the Indiana Memory Project, at Hendricks County, an initiative of digital historic preservation via the Indiana State Library and State of Indiana.
I have written for magazines, genealogical research, journals, and I have a book published regarding the history of the town of Brownsburg in images, "Images of America: Brownsburg," Arcadia Publishing.
I volunteer with the Indiana Pioneer Cemetery Restoration Project and have been trained in Advanced Cemetery Preservation by the Indiana Historical Society. I enjoy researching cemetery records and locations. Although I am a full range records researcher, I particularly enjoy lineage societies, land records, photograph identification and digitization, and family records research.
