I am a former prosecutor, and my father and uncles were policemen and detectives. This background has given me a unique perspective on family history research (my "detective eyes").
I prefer the term "family historian" over "genealogist" because I believe the heart of our research is the collecting and preserving of our ancestors' life stories, and not just the adding of leaves on the family tree.
Yeah ... that's the kind of help my cats give me, too. Oscar sure is handsome, BTW.
