I have been researching for over 20 years. My specialties include southern states and Texas; western states of California, Montana, and Oregon; 18th & 19th century German research, and 18th & 19th century Swedish research. My German language capability is intermediate. I am the former recording secretary for California Genealogical Society & Library, and past president for Contra Costa County Genealogical Society. I am currently a board member and volunteer at Contra Costa County Historical Society History Center in Martinez.
