My name is Kristine A. My main hobby is genealogy. I started my research in 1992, but back then there wasn't an internet to help me. Now it's easier. Recently, I've been researching my "Duarte" ancestors who where movers and shakers in their heyday. And I recently found out that they have their own historic webpage on HistoricMonterey.org: Duarte's Store.
I named my About page "Los Californianos" because my family was here when it was called Alta California & when "California" still belonged to Mexico. I'm very proud that my ancestors, as well as myself, are real native Californians.
