Searching for my Heritage

By: Jeffrey LaRochelle

Telling My Story
In April 2005, I listened to a keynote speech at the annual Order of the Crown of Charlemagne meeting that explored the process and the emotions associated with this individual’s search for his ancestors. I realized that each of the avid genealogists in attendance that night had their own story to tell of how they began their own search for their heritage and the things that they learned and experienced along the way. Since my own search has had some interesting twists and turns, I decided to chronicle it so that I could share it with others. Click on Crown for full document.
