Diana shares her experience as a beginning (then more advanced!) genealogist
She has been a longtime friend of mine (our spouses were in the Marine Corps
together in the 1980's) and a few years ago asked me about "that genealogy
thing". Now living in Germany, her research has been diligent and
exceptional. Feel free to leave comments or contact her personally. She's
a gem and so is this article.
