Information, tips, and other interesting finds on this personal journey
According to my list of posts, seven years ago today is the day I started blogging on this site. Some would call it my "blogiversary." My first post wasn't very exciting as it looks to just be a copy of a story about Irish genealogy. Though, I quickly found my way and started to write better, more … [Read more...]
I recently ran across a website for a specific surname that's goal was to collect all of the information it could and provide it in one easy location. The Rainwater Collection of Genealogy Resources purpose is "to assist serious genealogical researchers in their research by providing an archive of … [Read more...]
