Biography
I'm first generation American from my mother, who was born 1939 Bavaria Germany. I was born 1962 in Fresno California. By 1965 we were living in the Salinas Valley; the land of milk and honey.
Several years later we moved to San Jose, California. I've lived here every since. The weather is great, but all the fields for the children to play are gone. I keep telling myself to move to a more simple place, that's not so crowded.
But for now my family is the reason that I stay here. But, someday I will move!

I'm looking forward to working with you on some profiles.
Congratulations on certifying to work on pre-1700 profiles! It’s very important to read and understand https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Pre-1700_Profiles. These profiles for deep ancestors are shared by many, and collaborating on them works best if we all follow the guidelines laid out on that page.

Thanks for taking the Pre-1700 Quiz
As Pre-1700 ancestors are shared by many descendants, working within the projects coordinating them is essential. Please ensure there is a location and that the location data matches dates of profiles, avoid abbreviations, add citations & links for sources to support the data, please review these pages Reliable Pre-1700 Sources and Help Sources for Pre-1700

PS I see you have posted a number of comments on profiles. You might get more interest, if you build profiles for your ancestors with documented sources, which other profile managers will be able to see and engage with. Let me know if I can help
