My name is <JOYCE GARRETT-JONES> and I started this site.
. At age 19, I became very curious about my family history  after reading the book of Mathew in the Bible and seeing how important our family blood line was that God  mentioned it often in his word. Thus began my hearts desire to learn more about my blood line.

I was especially eager to learn about my paternal grandfather who died at age 47. My parents were dating at the time thus I never knew him as most of my cousin neither. Through my genealogy search of him , I have learned wonderful things about his life. I found cousins and got to travel and visit with them learning even more about my family. I was able to find and visit the graves of my great grandparents and many more. It has been a very enjoyable experience.  Like a puzzle that the pieces all fit in.  Mysteries solved. It's been marvelous!
