Family History Hound

Family History Hound https://familyhisthound.carrd.co/ After interviewing my great-grandmother; I put the answers she gave in a cardboard box that I kept for 30 years.

Then 17 years ago I decided; I can do this, I have the time, that's when this journey started. Through family history I discovered numerous cousins, I've learned who my ancestors were and in some cases why they did the things they did. In the process I discovered a passion for genetic genealogy and although I'm not an expert I think my deep dive into the subject may help others with their quest.

I have a passion for genealogy and genetic genealogy and also for sharing. Watch this page to get tips and tricks and to find out about upcoming genealogy events and to stay up on news from The DNA Angel Project. Don't forget to check out our store; Shop the Hound
