Summary

 This blog is about my family tree and genealogy in general.  I use Ancestry to record my Family Tree(s) and also the website "Wikitree".  Ancestry is a paid site while wikitree is free.

My Trees on Ancestry include some of my family surnames - McLaughlin, Patee, Warzecha, Freden, Earl, Miner, and Buelke.  

I have 10 first cousins and have a page reserved to explain how cousins are defined such as "first cousins and second cousins.  First cousins have the same grand parents while second cousins have the same great grand parents.

I have also been a member of the Temecula Valley Genealogy Association (TVGS) and have learned about genealogy research.
