Grew up on several Randolph County, Indiana Farms, her father was a tenant farmer and her mother worked in factories in Richmond, Indiana. Farmlife with both animals and grain provided morning and evening chores and many wonderful days in nature with her trustee dog always at her side, skipper the border collie, Lucky the German Shepherd each had their turns running through the woods and fields and resting, looking up at the clouds in the sky. Work was a daily routine morning and evening , and throughout the day, when the crops needed to be planted, tended or harvested, and this life was good, father, who was very stern and a strong, disciplinarian taught both children, many lessons, some pleasant and useful, some unpleasant, and to be forgotten. A loving mother, who was kind to the core, a wonderful home keeper, a wonderful cook, and a loving mother. A little country school, seven years in Spartansburg Indiana, which is located in Randolph county, and five years in Lynn located in Randolph county. Restaurants, factories, farm, custom, work, all provided, employment and income, along with life lessons of being responsible and doing one’s best. Traveling, and adventure were friends. The excitement to see the world and to try everything was pretty much a daily search and a very rewarding one.

I pray someone along the way was inspired, comforted, or helped in their pursuit of finding their purpose and giving it away. I am very thankful for those who comforted me and helped me in the pursuit of my life choices. I found my purpose, and hopefully daily I give it away. Merciful father God, Jesus, who taught us grace, the Holy Spirit, who gives us guidance.. they are my toolbox.

You may have been hard at work getting connected to family members who are already here and adding those who were missing. You probably have at least a few profiles that you manage now.
There's a fast and easy way to access those profiles using the Watchlist. So, this week we're going to look at How to Manage Your Watchlist.
Please let one of us know if you have questions! Just click my name above the comment, then ask in the comment section of my page. We want to help!
Thanks, WikiMessenger Cindy

You've been here for several weeks now! We hope your profiles are starting to come together and that you've enjoyed getting to know all of us a little better.

Tomorrow, you'll hear from a Mentor who will check in to see how you're doing and answer any questions you might have.
Next week, you'll get another message with your next stop on the guided tour.
You can also meet some of our members by joining in the fun with our Question of the Week in the G2G forum:Do you have any heroic volunteers in your branch?
Welcome! From Marshall
WikiTree is different than other genealogy websites because our goal is to have one profile per person, and that means we share ancestors and work together as a BIG collaborative team!
What brings you to WikiTree? Do you have research youd like to share? Are you interested in how your family fits into the big tree?
When you confirm your email address, youll be given an opportunity to volunteer to help document our collective family history. Use the Tags and comments to tell us about your genealogical interests.
When you volunteer, one of our Greeters will confirm your membership. Then you'll be able to add your family to the tree!
We're really glad you're here!
Marshall, a volunteer greeter
