As a small child, I was regaled by my grandmothers with stories of my family history. On my maternal side, I am descended from half of the families who sailed on the Mayflower. On the paternal side, I descend from a family of Swiss immigrants who settled in Indiana. The home farm in western Indiana is still being run by the seventh generation of Yegerlehners. In 2012, I earned a Genealogical Resea

I have maintained the blog: www.genealogylady.net for two years, and have transcribed over 950 letters written by my grandparents during World War II. I am currently in the process of preparing two books for publication. I am part of the research team of the new show Discovering Your Past.

It's been absolutely ages since I've posted anything on my genealogy blog/website. I'm going to try to start posting mini sections of the book I've been working on FOREVER!
