Bio

A native of Fort Worth, Texas, with maternal roots through the deep South and Midwest and paternal roots in the Philadelphia/Southern New Jersey area.

I've had a passion for genealogy since I was about 8 years old. I'm fortunate enough to work in the IT industry and work remotely full-time. I live in a nice motor home and travel extensively in pursuit of genealogical treasure.

I tend to "go wide" in my research, meaning I don't just go straight up and down my lines - I look at siblings, aunts, uncles, in-laws, and outlaws. Very rarely do humans do something in a vacuum - our families and events of our time drive our actions. Piecing together the stories of the family helps paint a rich picture that bare stats of birth and death dates can't match. It's the stories and the people that I find interesting.

I'm not put off by skeletons in the closet - history just... is. (shrug)

My DNA is on 23&me, Ancestry, FamilyTreeDNA, MyHeritage, Living DNA, and GEDmatch A810512, all under my real, full name of Frank Bradford Felmey, III.

The memorials I create are for us all - if you feel that you would be a more appropriate manager of a given memorial, please don't hesitate to reach out to discuss.

Any grave site pictures I've taken may be copied at will - this is my blanket, up-front permission in writing, with no restrictions. Credit need not be given unless it's just something you prefer to do.

Best of luck in your ancestor hunt!
