King, is a professional genealogist and the founder of one
of the early and most successful social networking organizations

Societies (IAJGS), 1998.
Lifetime Achievement Award by the International Association
of Jewish Genealogical Societies, (IAJGS), 2005 During a
27 year journey, looking back and now forward, Susan has
chosen to follow her passion, taking a slight departure
from the norm; to begin to look at the field of genealogy
through a different set of lenses. Susan has traveled throughout
the world and these experiences helped developed a better
understanding of self; her motivations and the spirit that
drives her. There is no doubt that the lives of her ancestors
have played a dramatic role in her professional development
and her life.
A near death experience in January,2007 changed the course
of her life forever. It was unexplainable and at times daunting.
And it reached so deep, deeper than she had ever ventured
before. Since then, Susan has been working actively to hone
her skills in the spiritual industry.
Susan is a Genealogy columnist with The Examiner. As the
Genealogy Examiner, Susans column covers cover the gamut
of genealogical topics with a rare twist. Through this column
Susan will be building a deeper understanding of the spiritual
journey of finding our ancestors and finding ourselves.
Through a deeper understanding of our history and the history
of others will we be.
We live in both very exciting times and very troubling times.
But we live in a time where we really do have an opportunity
to change; change how we think and feel about ourselves;
change how we think and feel about others. We have an opportunity
to teach the next generations the importance of preservation,
the importance of respect, and the importance of tolerance.
There is no better modality than through the study and sharing
of our genealogies, our research and through our feelings.
In this light, Susan has launched a new social network,
Susaneking.com, the place Where genealogy and spirit connect.
This site is designed to assist others to embark on their
own personal journey tofind your family, find yourself.
