Research notes for Nancy Freehafer
http://home.alltel.net/freehafer/index.html
About Me: Nancy J. Freehafer
I was born in Abington, PA. And, no, I won't say when!
My father was in the air force about that time, so the family relocated to Kansas when I was about 1 year old. A couple of years later, his service there ended, and my family relocated to a suburb of Cleveland, Ohio. I grew up in that area. I went to college at Wooster, Ohio and graduated with a B.A. in Sociology. After college, I relocated to New Jersey, then Philadelphia, PA. About 20 years ago, I came down to North Carolina, which is where I currently live with my three dogs and three cats.
For the last 11 years, I have worked for a large software development firm. I have held positions as a software support specialist, a technical writer, and a technical editor. I am currently working as a Quality Assurance Specialist in the area of technical writing. Through my employment with this company, I have gained a good deal of experience developing content for the Web, and I have learned much about markup languages and Web site design and usability.
The hobby that takes up almost all of my free time is genealogy. Up until two years ago, I volunteered at the local Family History Center in Charlotte, NC. I have been researching my family history for the last 10 years. Many of my paternal ancestors come from Berks, Schuylkill, and Lancaster counties in Pennsylvania. And, many of them date back to or earlier than the Revolutionary War period. Some of the names that I am researching are: Freehafer/Frehafer/Frickhöffer/Frickhöfer, Geier/Geyer, Koch, Arthur, Petry/Petrie, Moyer/Meyer, Rieser, Styer/Steuer, Foreman/Fuhrman, Yohn, and Lacy/Lacey.
