Feature 1 paragraph:	From my earliest years I was drawn to know my ancestors. At the core of my being I needed to know where I’d come from. Names were not enough – I needed the stories, I longed to know who these people were that came together to create all who came before me. Fortunately, my grandmother, Goldie (Simpson) Uphouse Edwards, was the very lucky recipient of her own grandmother’s 19th Century photo album. This she bequeathed to me, one of my most precious possessions. Just as important were the incredible memories she shared of her mother, Susan Belle Stanwood, and of her colorful father Ernest L. “Bob” Simpson. I’ve spent most of my life recording these stories and collecting information on the Stanwood and Simpson families. Please feel free to visit my blog, GraveObsessions.com, or click above to search this database for records on these awesome ancestors.

Feature 4 paragraph:	We are the chosen. In each family there is one who seems called to find the ancestors. To put flesh on their bones and make them live again. To tell the family story and to feel that somehow they know and approve. Doing genealogy is not a cold gathering of facts but, instead, breathing life into all who have gone before. We are the story tellers of the tribe. All tribes have one. We have been called, as it were, by our genes. Those who have gone before cry out to us: Tell our story. So, we do. In finding them, we somehow find ourselves. How many graves have I stood before now and cried? I have lost count. How many times have I told the ancestors, "You have a wonderful family; you would be proud of us.". How many times have I walked up to a grave and felt somehow there was love there for me? I cannot say. It goes beyond just documenting facts. It goes to who I am, and why I do the things I do.
