I see we share a common interest in the Westbrook line. Have we conversed before?" was the first communication I had from Andrew on Genealogywise. I replied to Andrew and we exchanged some files.
When Google Wave was in beta I was able to get some invitations, one of these I gave to Andrew who was keen on trying out this new product. Sadly Google Wave was'nt a success. I note, however that Andrew continues to be involved with a number of social networking sites.
Thanks, Andrew, for responding to my request for a GeniMates profile. I hope that it may lead to more connections with Kemps for you.
No formal studies - self trained in all areas
As a child I asked questions about my family and my grandparents were always elusive. Family rumor was of royalty in the past, so the spark was lit.
Began dabbling in family history amongst the family in early 90's, but when the internet started in Australia I decided to commence chasing ancestor's in earnest.
18+ years
No formal expertise, however have learned a number of tricks along the way which I use both myself and try to assist others.
