Genealogy & Me

Genealogy is truly my passion. I believe all people should, if they wish, be able to research who their ancestors were, how they got here and how that relates to their own life. As I may have said, when my new Clark cousin told me I was a Clark from the nose up, it was a defining moment in my life. It sounds like a little thing, but I had never known my Grandpa Clarks relatives. Growing up we never gave a thought that there might be Clarks out there, much less thought about how they related to us physically. It is a strange experience to know that I look like a family of people I did not even know existed. But it is a reaffirmation of who I am and who I came from. Knowing how I felt about my Clark blue eyes, I knew that if other people wanted to know who they looked like, I would like to help them. Doing Genealogy Research has had that "coming home" feeling. It is as if this was what I was meant to do all along, but just didn't know it.
