    Tim, I am Rachell Bartchlett Cifers. Daughter of Ralph Bartchlett,. George and Christal Bartchlett were my grandparents. Allan Bartchlett is my uncle. I lived on Goat Island until I was about six years old, when my Mama and Daddy split up. It was 1963 when Mama moved me away from my family. I spent the whole rest of my life trying to find them. I want to write my story, that I have been working on. How do I go about getting published?
