Born in NC. & lived in there for 13 years. When my father died; I was devastated. During the summer of 1969 my mother & I moved to Naples, Florida where I met & married my 1st husband; I was 16 years old. While he was in the military we lived in Germany and my son was born there; I loved Germany and everything about it! (it's part of my heritage through my great grandmother. After returning to Florida I decided to leave Larry, and beautiful Naples in 1976, and take my son to North Carolina (where my mother had moved back to a year earlier). In 1980 I married again, and in 1980 we had a daughter. Mike died and I was a single parent of 2 children. I remained single for 9 years. In 1995 I met my 3rd husband and in 1999 we married. After some time & circumstances we grew apart and divorced. At the time of this journal I am living in North Carolina near where my mother lives. My son, Shawn is currently in NC and my daughter, and my granddaughter currently live elsewhere. I am a member of Church of God (a long way from my Lutheran upbringing!). Sources ==

I descend from the Stevenson line (Edward and Mary Stevenson's son Henry of Baltimore Co. MD) Edward emigrated from as best as I and a colleague have determined ca. 1671 Newcastle-upon-Tyne, Northumberland area. The two spellings are regarded as insignificant in genealogical circle. Edward was from a merchant family. My line went west to Ohio and Nebraska. My mother being a Stevenson from Nebraska. I might be able to find something that will break down a wall bc I do significant work in the lower Southern colonies.
Just a suggestion, it really works out better if you give each individual surname or location a separate Tag.
