Thank you to all of your for your kind words of welcome. Just to let you know a little bit more about me..... I have been doing genealogy since I was about 11, maybe a little bit before. Which makes it 25 plus years now.(give or take). (although it hasn't been a solid 25 years, with raising three children. I got a little side tracked for a while) About 3-4 years now I have been using the internet to track down my family. So this stuff is not new to me. My roots are primarily in Manitowoc County, Wisconsin. Although I do have two branches that settled elsewhere (Minnesota & Iowa). I have been working with Shari on the Manitowoc Gen Site for over a year now (www.2manitowoc.com). I love transcribing and walking cemeteries....when I found out that Jan lived in Michigan and wasn't able to do as much as she wants, I took the liberty to start helping out and eventually Jan talked me into being co-CC for the site. I have a lot of things I want to bring to the county site. My goal is to make the Waukesha County site the best site out there! That is going to be tough though, since Manitowoc is pretty darn good and it has had a huge headstart. I have not checked lately, but it is my guess the Manitowoc Site has pretty close to 2000 webpages now, plus Shari has been out with her digital camera and photographing cemeteries, so we have another whole section of tombstone photos (I think she has about 10-15 cems done now). When I make an update to the site, I add to the what's new page. So look there to see what neat things I added. I am going to try and do something every few days at the least...so keep checking that page to see what's happening. Thanks again for your support all. I look forward to hearing all about your families.
