About Me

My photo
The Glamorous Genealogist
I have been researching Genealogy/family history for 18 years.I am a member of several lineage societies including The Daughters of The American Revolution. I write the occasional article for genealogical magazines. I have coerced male family members into participating in "FamilyTree DNA" testing and have done the MTDNA tests and "23 and Me" . I am currently working on assembling information to publish as a member of The Guild of One Name Studies. I am responsible for the surname Bowles and its variants. I work on genealogy daily and although I am not a certified genealogist, I have been active in helping others research their family trees. As much as possible, I try to create a personal profile for my ancestors by finding out how and where they lived,their occupations, lifestyles, and political view points as well as learning about dates and data. I am not as keen on having a tree with a million names as I am with fleshing out the lives of the more direct and close collateral lines. I hope you enjoy my blog and that we can all learn from each other. Thank you for stopping by!
