I'm a wife, mother, grandmother, daughter, sister, and future mother-in-law to a Navy guy, etc.I have been home schooling my two younger daughter for the last three years. Both are engaged to fine young men, one of whom is currently serving in the Navy deployed. We're so proud of his devotion to duty and to his bride to be. Thanks to him I am now involved with www.navyformoms.com, a fabulous support network for any mom, sister, girlfriend, fiancee, step-mom, or future mother-in-law to belong to.
Some of my family has been in the same area for over 350 years, since my ancestor Reverend Roger Williams founded this state in the 1630's.
I enjoy sewing, making crafts & jewelry. We also are blessed with our pets sharing their home with us. All have been rescued or adopted from local shelters.
I love to read, good music and classic movies as well as current favorites like the Harry Potter series, and the Lord of the Rings trilogy.
I'm a genealogist with most of my roots in pre-Revolutionary War Rhode Island, Massachusetts, and New London County, Connecticut. I'm the current recording secretary for the Roger Williams Family Association which meets each month and honors the memory of our ancestor and founder of the Rhode Island Colony. I am always glad to meet new cousins along the way.
I love researching ancestors and historical events that took place in their life time. I'm very interested in anything historical, particularly pre-Revolutionary New England and the Salem Witch trials.
I enjoy living history presentations(especially pirates), historical tours, museums, and libraries. I also have a great love of anything piratical, especially the privateers of New England.
I love the fantasy artists Brian Froud, Nene Thomas, Josephine Wall & Amy Brown.
I enjoy spending time with my husband, my daughters, my grandkids, as well as spending time with my friends and the rest of my family.
I love to watch the ocean and sit on the beach. And the sound of thunder and watching a storm over the water. I love to go on walks on a nature trail or on the shore.
I support animal rights, children's rights, first responders and our troops overseas along with their families, and pray for their safety and return home.
I am a daughter, grand-daughter, niece, sister, and aunt of firefighters.
I like making new friends, especially those interested in family research or chatting about history. I love walking on the shore, and the sound of falling rain and thunderstorms, and new fallen snow on the ground.
I love all animals, but especially cats large and small. Especially the tiger, and most especially the white tigers and snow leopards.
Hope you enjoy this page, thanks for stopping by! Have a great day!
