I've been doing some indexing for FamilySearch. Helping index old documents for other people to be able to freely search is a good thing to do. Plus, I like seeing all of the history of some of these places. Stop on over there and lend a hand. While indexing a bunch of New Hampshire Pre-1900 … [Read more...]
Today is a historic day in America. It makes me feel good to see how far we've come as a country. Hopefully, I'll be able to remember this day and tell my kids and grandkids about it. That made me look into my family tree to see what my family may have been doing during important presidential … [Read more...]

A bit late on this one, but here goes. Upload your favorite picture and talk about it on your blog. Answer the who/what/when/where/why of the subject matter and explain why it is your favorite. This is a photo of the Frank & Anna Zalewski family (my great-great grandparents.) Names (as … [Read more...]

I've been told unofficially that they used to dress up boys in dress-type clothing in the early 1900s for … [Read more...]

Hello again! Been doing a bit more research lately, so I've stepped up my postings (which isn't too hard to do I guess.) Just remember that even if I'm not posting regularly, I am always available for comments, emails, research questions, etc. I just may not be actively searching at the time, but I … [Read more...]

I started genealogy research about mid-1999. My grandfather had passed away in April of that year. Since then I’ve done a lot of research not only for myself, but for friends and other relatives. In 2006, I married the love of my life, Darcy, and welcomed the birth of our daughter, Aerissa Jean, in 2010. I can’t wait to tell her stories about all of her ancestors. [Read More …]
