Since my childhood I have had the hobby of genealogy.  I have traced my family tree through out the United States and Europe.  I have combined my fascination with technology and with genealogy to  help speed up my research and improve my results. My work in Computer Forensics, finding evidence on a hard drive has assisted with my hobby of finding relatives in my family tree.  Both are different forms of detective work that require tracing things back to the origins.
