Inspiration x 2

Randy Seaver's Saturday Night Genealogy Fun - Inspiration!
"What event or person inspired you to start your genealogy research?"

- my neighbor, Beatrice Dever, that I used to babysit for when I was young, was my initial inspiration. She had a wonderful family tree that used to amaze me; and when I was a teenager, my Great Aunt Theresa Stosz Hack. Please read what I wrote about my G-Aunt at: http://tangledtrees.blogspot.com/2009/03/theresa-stosz-of-segenthau-romania.html

When I returned to California from my visit with my Aunt in NJ, & shared what I learned with Bea, she gave a very nice Family History Book as a graduation gift to record my family tree and very first family group sheets.

Now I continue to be inspired by my fellow genealogists both on-line and locally at the Fairfax Genealogical Society - http://www.fxgs.org/
Thank you!!
