My name is Jen Larcom. I am a third-generation native Floridian, a wife, a mom, a graphic designer by trade, and I love to dive into genealogy when I can. I am a member of the Daughters of the American Revolution - Rufus Fairbanks Satellite Beach Chapter, and the New England Historic Genealogical Society.
