WHAT THIS SITE IS ABOUT
The youngest of five children, I inherited my parents genealogical records that were painstakingly collected, added to, and worked over by hand throughout their lifetimes. When they both had passed I felt compelled to take up their labor of love, only using much improved technology and the Internet which they never knew. Very early on I discovered and wrote about the mysterious magnetic force that accompanies this work and fleeces me of sleep. I believe it has something to do with the very last two verses written in the book of "The Prophets."
Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord;
And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers,
lest I come and smite the earth with a curse. Malachi 4: 5-6
And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers,
lest I come and smite the earth with a curse. Malachi 4: 5-6
Thus, I created this site which has given me joy and peace of mind and a reason for being.

"I AM"
13 And Moses said unto God, Behold, when I come unto the children of Israel, and shall say unto them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you; and they shall say to me, What is his name? What shall I say unto them?
14 And God said unto Moses, I Am That I Am: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I Am hath sent me unto you.
15 And God said moreover unto Moses, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, The Lord God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath sent me unto you: this is my name for ever, and this is my memorial unto all generations.
--The Second Book of Moses Called Exodus, Chapter 3.
