Passion for family history is something so many of us can identify with.
We don't quite think like others, we're always searching for just one more clue, one snippet of information that might answer that question that has been bothering us. We read newspapers and can't remember the headlines, but we do recall that the village of "MaybeThatsIt" was mentioned in a small paragraph and wasn't that where 5th cousin Eldred's 2nd wife came from?
We find ourselves lost in a world of shipping lists and indexes, of certificates and obituaries and get excited about graveyard transcriptions. Some of our families worry that we live in the past, they don't understand that we are looking to the future... so that others that follow will know exactly from whence they came. We also do a pretty good job of keeping all our relatives connected and informed...
One man whose passion for genealogy or family history gave him so much pleasure and opened up so much of the world to him was Chuck Dzarnowski. When Chuck couldn't go out to the world, the obvious solution was to for him to bring the world to him, just as his mother had done... However, he had the advantage of the internet and, well, best read the rest for yourself....
Tracing his family's history was man's passion

"Chuck became fascinated with his family's history after his mother traced it back to the 14th century. When post-polio syndrome forced his retirement in 2000, Chuck made it his "business" to continue the research and update his website's home page with interesting facts about family members."
