Greetings from Chicagoland

dsdrane:
My name is David Drane and I live in Evanston, Illinois, just north of Chicago.  At age 44, I've been fascinated by and actively involved in genealogy since I was a teenager.

Like many Americans, I'm a mutt -- partially Swedish, Irish and German, on my father's side, and English, Scottish and possibly Welsh, on my mother's side.  My mother's ancestors are largely Mayflower-era, whereas my father's side is decidedly Ellis Island-era.

One exception to this -- and the reason I am here -- is a recently-confirmed Thomson connection, which I'll elaborate upon in the genealogical forum.

Best regards to all,

David

Greetings David,
I lived in Winnetka IL for a short stint as Nanny (note to all 'am not Mary Poppins, never will be) a looooooong time ago. Lovely area!
Welcome to the forum!
