Biography
I was born in 1945 in Indiana and have one sister. We have been searching for details primarily about our paternal ancestors since our father died. We grew up in east central Illinois and I now live in Minnesota. I recently retired after 35 years as a university professor and 6 years as a high school teacher. My retirement has greatly strengthened my desire to better understand my family tree. It appears that many of my Brown family ancestors emigrated from Scotland and England and I look forward to visit locations where these ancestors lived in Europe. Hopefully the resources of WIKITREE will help me better understand how to overcome the barriers that have obstructed my search efforts since 1990.
