(WJS - husband & CRS - wife)
We grew up in the Northwest and met in Southern California and currently live in Colorado Springs, CO. Working together on our family's lineage and heritage to include both confirmed and oral story collections.

We are both looking to maintain our direct family memorials with confirmed DNA, records, family oral history, and pictures.

We respectfully work to document family oral history due to different immigrant and country heritages and several confirmed adoptions. DNA may find parentage, but adoptions support the person's growth and guidance. Oral history stories breath life into culture and adoptee histories that may not otherwise be known and believe oral history passed down is a critical part of our family's heritage and vital history to be captured and respected. As we connect our family lines we also look to connect our adoptees family's with notes to support the relationships.
