Hello! I am a family history researcher with deep roots in the United States and especially Kentucky, where I grew up. I now live in Rockville, Maryland. I started this website so that I can share family history stories with my children, grandchildren, and relatives. Besides genealogy, my interests are family, travel, and choral singing. This website includes a biography of my first husband, Henry Ho (1937-87), the father of my children. I hope someday to write about the family of my current husband, Carl Nelson, and his first wife Claudia Sparks (1952-1987), whom he lost to cancer the same year in which Henry died of cancer.

At left, on 25 May 2019, were my daughter, Colleen Horton; my grandson, Ryan Horton; his father/my son Jonathan Horton; my grandson Craig Swink, who graduated that day from the Interlochen Academy for the Arts in Michigan; my husband Carl Nelson, and myself.

Above, Carl and I were photographed on 27 September 2014, at the wedding of his son, Doug Nelson and Lauren Kuhnen.
