Hello everyone! Thank you for inviting me. I am a retired female from the Phoenix area of Arizona. Now living in Central Coast California (Monterey Bay) I have always loved doing research. Before retiring, I worked in a high school Library teaching students how to do research. As a child, I valued my books more than toys and guarded them diligently from younger siblings. Computers were not even imagined back then. We learned from books, Grandparents, teachers and nature. At times, I may have been a little more curious than the resources available. But that changed soon enough. I enjoy helping people when I can. I don't believe in hoarding knowledge. Sharing is more beneficial to everyone and saves a lot of time. I prefer to speak in simple language. I'm not interested in "conversation contests" I'm also a friendly, and generally happy person. Enough of that. What am I working on? 1. Currently researching "Isham" of England lineage for my Son Travis Wayne Isham, and his Cousin Curtis Alton Isham lll. "The Isham Legacy" is a fascinating challenge, with generations of repeated names, multiple marriages, Royalty, commoners, miraculous' achievements, and tragic deaths. 2. Doing updates to the "Pullums" of England, Descendants of Thomas A-Family History written by my Cousin Carl Pullum (My sir name is Pullum) 3. Family on my Mother's side "Dugan" of Ireland and "Mortensen" of Denmark. I'd be glad to share what I have .
