About Me
I grew up in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania and moved to the Salt Lake City, Utah area seven years ago. I have been married to my husband Dave for almost fourteen years now. We have three children- Blake, Jacob, and Kara.
I have a passion for family history. I was really pleased to discover the DigitalScrapbook.com site as Ancestry announced last week that they will be closing down the MyCanvas publishing site in September. I had previously used this site to make family history books. I am now making pages in Power Point and have been pleased with the results using embellishments from this site. I am in the process of making a book about the descendants of my great-grandparents John Joseph McNulty and Loretta Grace Siddons who had sixteen children.
I am the Abel clan historian for the Thomas Munson Foundation. Thomas was my 10th great-grandfather. I am actively helping to compile family data sheets for cousins lines who are not in the first five volumes of The Munson Record.
I have researched family history for others in the past but a lot of my efforts these days are focused on helping my cousins get to know their family lines better through Facebook family websites where I have shared my family history scrapbook pages and pictures.
I am a stay at home mom and dedicated family historian/genealogist. I also babysit for younger children in my home during the school year.
Type of Project
Digital Scrapbook LayoutDescription
William Boston, my great-grandfather, immigrated from England through Ellis Island. This page uses an immigration background from My Canvas with two quotes- one from Emerson and one that simply says, "Family defines History." This is a page from a family book I am working on.

this is fantastic Catherine! you did a great job of combining memory preservation and art! :D
what a nice way to show some family history. I took an immigration history class this past winter term and the kinds of horrors people has to endure, especially early on is unfathomable.
