Family Tree Hunters First Blog!

Welcome to Family Tree Hunters first blog!  The purpose of this blog is to let me, your humble correspondent, share with you what I have discovered while climbing my own family tree over the past 20 years and address topics like How to Get Started, Genealogy on a Dime, Great Resources on the Internet, and what types of things you want to watch out for as you are looking for your ancestors.  I hope you will find my postings to be informative, entertaining, and inspirational.

My background in terms of genealogy include being the writer and publisher of a genealogy newsletter which was read on 3 continents and requested by the Family Library in Salt Lake City, Utah; creator of a website devoted to the name CASTO which has been online for 13 years and has over 600 pages of data; volunteer instructor on genealogy to both children and senior citizens; and member of numerous genealogical and historical societies.  My main focus has been to help people find their ancestors and learn about the thrill and excitement of being a Family Tree Hunter for themselves.  It's really no fun if someone just gives you all the answers!

Thanks for dropping by.  Please feel free to leave comments and suggestions and I hope you'll visit my blog again!
