Wendy is a Genetic Genealogist by day, a writer by night, and an artist in between.

Her love of what we can learn from history compels her to write the true stories she unearths during research because she’s found that truth is indeed much more exciting and inspiring than fiction.

Wendy writes about family, faith, grief, art, and overcoming obstacles in life by coming to know who we really are—children of God, and the descendants of incredible people who paved the way for us—even if they really struggled. Wendy believes in learning from our ancestors, honoring them, and then standing on their shoulders to become someone even better.

She was so full of love and inspiration, and this record showed that she was married for a very short time before she married my grandfather. This was the 1920's, and the witnesses on the marriage certificate were not her parents, eluding to the fact she may have eloped! I researched the man she married and found several pictures of him on Ancestry.com. He was a handsome scallywag! I wish I knew how they met and what the story was there. I also found a divorce notice in a newpaper archive that said the young man's father instigated the divorce. How did she feel? Was she broken-hearted? Or did she chalk the experience up to a big mistake? I WANT TO KNOW. Maybe I need to write a fictional version to find some resolve!(less)
