STEPHEN'S ANCESTRAL BACKGROUND

 

Stephen's diverse ancestral background sparked his passion for genealogy early on in his adult life. He has studied his Prussian, Germanic, Scottish and Italian rooots extensively.  

 

Family story after family story, a common theme comes into greater relief: the goal of building a better future in the midst of adversity and uncertainty. The difficult circumstances, which his ancestors faced, shed light on some of the perennial questions that we still ask today pertaining to the human condition.
