I live in Memphis, Tennessee, and enjoy genealogy as a hobby. Right now I'm mainly interested in Southern genealogy and documenting the names and stories of enslaved people.
My own ancestors immigrated to Michigan and Iowa from the Netherlands in the late 1800s and early 1900s.
One line of my husband's ancestors (Webb, Shapard, Bailey, Smith, and Booker are the primary names) were early colonizers and slaveholders in Virginia and North Carolina before coming west to Haywood and Shelby counties in Tennessee.

Congratulations on certifying to work on pre-1700 profiles! It’s very important to read and understand the Help:Pre-1700 Profiles page. These profiles for deep ancestors are shared by many, and collaborating on them works best if we all follow the guidelines in the certification quiz.
Primary sources should always be added to pre-1700 profiles at the time they are created. If you don't have a source for a pre-1700 profile, it would be best to ask for help in the G2G forum before creating the profile.
