New member introducing myself

Question

Hi everyone! My name is Jenn and I am a new member here. I am learning as I go so I do appreciate tips and corrections to the information I am adding.

I have been an active family history researcher for the last 20+ years, but began my family history interest as a teenager. I love research challenges and have just been informed that my husband's application to the GSMD has been accepted.

I have primarily Norwegian and Germanic European roots that begin in US in the 19th century, while my husband has many ancestors from the UK and northern Europe that began arriving in the US during the 17th century.

I am the vice president of my local genealogy group (which is struggling mightily since 2020), and have a facebook page and a blog where I share my research with family and friends.

I am loving this site so far and appreciate the dedication to sources and accuracy that I am finding here!

Looking forward to learning from all y'all very much!
