Honor Code SignatorySigned 17 Sep 2020 | 370 contributions | 22 thank-yous | 767 connections
I was born in 1977 in Burlington, Ontario, Canada but was raised in the neighbouring city of Hamilton. In 2000, I graduated from McMaster University with a Bachelor of Commerce degree and have worked in sales and marketing ever since. I have also served as the Dominion Chairman of the Monarchist League of Canada since 2007.
My ancestors come from present-day Ontario, Nova Scotia, USA, England, Scotland, Germany, Netherlands, and Belgium.
My main family tree is done using RootsMagic. I also have a blog where I share stories and research.
Outside of genealogy, my other interests include Canadian football, the Titanic, history & geography, and 80s wrestling.
Today, I live with my wife and daughter on a farm in Haldimand County, Ontario.

One small comment. Be careful when you're editing, not to move inline citations (things that are surrounded by the <ref></ref> tags). They look a bit messy in the edit view, but they're a lot more functional in profile view, and they're the WikiTree preferred style. They're not required, and it takes a bit of work to learn to use them. But when they're there already and used correctly, you should definitely leave them

Thank you for signing the Honor Code it is appreciated. I notice that you have not added any green tags to your profile, tags do help you link into the community and to those who have an interest in the same surnames or countries. You can have up to 20 tags, I would suggest you add your surname

PS If you add your surname and other surnames you are researching to your tags, you can connect to other members researching those names. The more of these clickable tags you add (20 max.) that include surnames, locations, periods of history or other genealogical interests, the more connections you will make and maybe find a few cousins! To add tags, use this link. This page will help you learn more about tags.
