I am a native of the United States (San Antonio, Texas). I settled in Augusta, GA during my teen years with the retirement of my father from the United States Air Force. I have always been interested in knowing as much as I could about my family history. My interest began in my youth but grew in the late 90s. I have been researching my family since that time with vigor with my latest area of interest being DNA testing.

I absolutely love meeting new family members so much that I began last year doing a Hightower mini meet and greet in areas where I know my family has migrated. In 2012 the meet and greet was in Columbia, SC; in 2013 I had a meet and greet in Atlanta, GA on 5-18-13 and Charlotte, NC on 6-14-13. This year I have held several meet and greets in Johnston, SC, Greenwood, SC and Columbia, SC.

Hi!

How's everything going? You might be finding duplicate profiles now. We have a Help Page to help you learn what to do with them. Be sure to check for your pending merges by going to FIND, PENDING MERGES, and sort for those waiting on you. Upon completing a merge, be sure to clean up/edit the Biography as ALL information from both profiles are copied and remove any duplicate info.

If you want updates on surnames you can add them by going to MY WIKITREE, NAV HOME PAGE, scroll down to just below WIKI GENEALOGY FEED to EDIT FOLLOWED SURNAMES. You can add up to 20.

Lastly, sometimes you'll run into unresponsive profile managers. We have a process for resolving those situations.
