"I grew up listening to stories of Alt Schowe which became the seed
for my interest in my family's history."
Although I've lived almost my entire life in Florida I have many happy memories of my first seven years living in Cleveland, Ohio. My mother was from Darkovac but raised in Cleveland and my father was born in Dayton but raised in Schowe. So I grew up listening to stories of Alt Schowe which became the seed for my interest in my family's history.
I attended one year of college following high school graduation and then got married. For the next twenty-three years I raised three children but when the chance to return to college presented itself I jumped at the chance. I majored in painting and really enjoyed the experience.
My work experience was with the State of Florida University System and I was employed at three campuses over the years. After retiring I volunteered in the music library of a large downtown church and the Records Department of the University Club of Winter Park. I really enjoy doing genealogical searches and have helped several friends obtain important information on their ancestors.
I have three children, two grandchildren and two great-grands!
I still enjoy art and gardening.
