A New Collaboration 

Family


It’s not often that when you arrange to meet someone for the first time that you choose to do it in a cemetery but it seemed appropriate to meet Vivian at Calvary. We’d known of her for years and had corresponded a bit through Ancestry.com. We knew she shares an interest in genealogy and that she shares DNA with Steve through two ancestral lines. Together we located the final resting place of her Great Great Grandparents/Steve’s Great Aunt Mary and Uncle Fred. We continued the visit at a local bookstore cafe and are now looking forward to future visits and perhaps planning a family reunion together!
