I am a 68-year-old family historian, genealogist and part-time college history professor. My husband and I live in Little Egg Harbor, NJ. Our children all live in northern New Jersey, about a 2-hour drive from us. I spend my time hunting for ancestors, teaching others how to do the same, and video phoning every day with my four-year old granddaughter. I heard about the Next Avenue story contest through a writing group I belong to for seniors called Time to Tell.
