Blog and Blogger

As you can see on the left side
there is a new site to go to.
It is run by Amy of That's Life.
Untangled Family roots

Finding your ancestors, has so
many rewards. The ones that really
pay off, is when it is told thru the family.
Because then you get to find out what
the person did for their families, towns and
etc. What line of work they did. Some times
if you are lucky to find an obits in the paper,
you can find out some of that information.

My daughter who has spent a great deal
of time with a good friend, has come up
with information on my mother's side. Which
I only had two and part of a third generation
information. With the two of them, they
found 8 generations. Information that could
mean something to my grandchildren and
great-grandchildren for scholarships later.

Also, she was doing a invitation for her
father's family picnic and thru the research, found
some pictures of great-great-grandparents. Internet
can be so great.

So check out Amy's new site. You might
be surprise how easy it may be to find out
some information about your family. And
telling your elderly parent or grandparents,
may jar some old memories for you to
record for your family.

Also, and I know I will probably get killed
for this one. But one of our bloggers is
going to have eye surgery in Sept. I know a
lot of you enjoy her site and the beautiful
pictures she provides. So go to her site
and leave an encouraging word for her,
and for those who pray, maybe you can
do one for her in mid-Sept.
