Biography

James was born in New Orleans, Louisiana. He lived in Metairie, Louisiana and Harahan, Louisiana before starting school. His family moved to Vacherie, Louisiana the summer before he started Kindergarten. The summer before sixth grade, his family moved to Metairie, Louisiana. While in Metairie, he graduated from Archbishop Rummel High School. He attended the University of Southern Mississippi in Hattiesburg for two years, before returning to Metairie to eventually complete an Associate of General Science from Delgado Community College. Then, he completed a Bachelor of Science in Biology from the University of New Orleans. Later, James resumed his academic education and obtained a Master of Science in Information Assurance from Norwich University of Northfield, Vermont.

James' first job was working in the family retail hardware store after school. During high school, he tried out a variety of other jobs, and two years after obtaining his bachelor's degree he started working in Information Technology, eventually specializing in Information Security.

James relocated from Metairie, Louisiana to Meridian, Idaho in August of 2005. His wife and step-daughter were delayed in their relocation by Hurricane Katrina, but they eventually rejoined him in Idaho. James and his wife welcomed two new members into the family in 2017.

You are now a member of the WikiTree Community - We are building One Collaborative Tree, with just one profile per person, so it is important to ensure no duplicates are entered as you add Profiles to WikiTree.

If you have pre-1700's ancestors to add, please read our Pre-1700 profiles info. Please, be sure to include a list of the sources used, on each profile you add.

If you need any help getting started check out the Help Index or the G2G forum - Good luck growing your branches, Patt

been into genealogy for more than half my life; picked up lots of information but with few useful verified sources; DNA has introduced more questions than it has answered, so I am switching from other-sites that are just not worth the cost, my hope is to work with others who want to search for connections, answers, and make progress on some of those questions for myself and the rest of my family

Hi James, I noticed you uploaded a GEDCOM. Here's a link to great info about adding a GEDCOM to WikiTree that you might find helpful. Also, 'Before you import a GEDCOM' Because WikiTree has only one profile for each person, the further back you go in your ancestry, the more likely cousins will find you and help out.

Sources are very important for genealogy - be sure to include the sources used, on each profile you add.

It is a good idea to enter a few of your ancestors manually, to get used to how WikiTree works. Then, you could upload a small portion of your tree, with a gedcom, to see how that works. There is usually editing needed after a Gedcom import, so fewer profiles makes the task easier.

Hello & Welcome, to WikiTree! We're growing a FREE worldwide family tree, striving for ONE collaborative profile per person.

"Sources are critically important for genealogy. Some even say that genealogy without sources is mythology. Even if you're just a casual family historian recording modern family history, you will be helping future genealogists by listing where the information you've added came from."

Feel free to ask questions at our G2G forum. Also, our help pages menu, top right, has some very useful information.

Our Honor Code is why our community is such a friendly place to grow your family tree, so please take some time to read it. Want to join us? Check the volunteer box and leave a brief comment about your genealogical journey. Happy researching - Patt
