I haven't been on here because I have been trying to finish up some extra leads on my family history.I have been trying to find two people that were elusive and yesterday both got dumped in my lap.It's so thrilling to find people(I get that way)I haven't been able to find but if I can get a bead on them either by name or date or county,I do pretty good finding them.Now I am sending information out to others who are related to me.You have to share with others when they share with you.That's basically genealogy good manners.I found some new sites and have been scouring them for more(you really can't have "enough")so I write or type or copy anything I can get my hands on.I really would like to do a book on our family but for now I got to wait.
Packed a few more boxes and doing some cleaning out.Not much going on besides that.
Genealogy is quite a task. I took it on a few years ago and ended up with 1300 people listed.
ReplyDeleteI would find out more about my family history one day... how exciting that your hard work is paying off!
ReplyDeleteThanks Paula it has been tough.Our family is just simple people and if anyone looks for their family and you know they came out of the Virginias just follow the route east usually in the northern part from there into the Carolinas,Georgia,Alabama,if your family lived in these states.Main states for good genealogy was North and South Carolina.A lot of people were there in 1800s.
