Hi there. I just joined Wiki Jan 2010. I'm a genealogist and find Wikipedia can sometimes help with research. The main reason I created an account was because I found a discrepancy with the birth date of someone listed here.

I belong to the Ontario Genealogical Society [1], York Region Branch, and am their cemetery co-ordinator. We create transcripts of all the headstones in the cemeteries.

I completed my genealogy studies in Dec 2009 through the National Institute for Genealogical Studies [2], so I now have the designation PLCGS

I grew up in Aurora, Ontario, and now live in the town to the north, Newmarket. Most of my ancestors are from this region (York Region), and are still here to a large degree.
