What got me started on my obsession - the story behind it all.

When the last census was beginning in 2010 I heard about how people could actually look at census records on the computer - I began the search for a few family names I knew - and I was hooked.  First of all I love research so spending hours (as many as possible) alone in front of a computer screen was my cup of tea!  It also involves a mystery - like Sherlock Holmes (or any other detective you enjoy) I have to find a clue here and a clue there to solve the puzzle.  Typically the answers are found a tiny piece at a time.  It requires great patience to search for answers to build a family tree.
