Karen Risher Posts: 6 Joined: 14th Feb 2010 Location: USA	quotePosted at 21:44 on 14th February 2010 Just found site and would like to introduce myself. name is Mondami, I am in USA, state of Ohio. 3/4 of my ancestry is England with a bit of Wales thrown in. I have been to England twice, Scotland once. My interests are traveling, genealogy, photography and gardening among other things. I work in city government, possibly will retire in 4 years when I reach 65. I look forward to reading here, may not post as often as would like due to this pesky full time job that is currently a requirement for me. Mondami My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

Mondami is what I put for user name at log in registration, thus I thought I had to use that. I am so happy to have found this website, not only for the pictures and information, for the forums and networking with others. I have a lot of reading to do.

I was born and raised not far from there, have never been. At one time there were a lot of potteries there. Dean Martin was great singer wasn't he? My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

James, perhaps if your wife got interested in some places here that she would like to see, then she will want to make the trip with you. My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions
