About Me
Hi! I’m Adrienne and I’m addicted to genealogy. (To say I’m KINterested makes it sound more
acceptable, but let’s be honest here.) I’ve been researching my family history
for over 10 years now and started this blog as a way to share the stories, pictures,
memories, recipes and more that I come across with my extended family and
friends.
I’m an educator by training and nature, and my background is
in African American history. When I’m not researching (and not working) I’m
probably reading a good book, playing in the kitchen, spending time with family
and friends, or – hopefully – traveling or hanging out in the great outdoors. Either
way, I’m probably drinking tea.
My Research In A
Nutshell
I am researching the:
- Cooper, Scott and Thomas families in and around Burke, Hancock and Washington Counties, GA
