A New Coat of Paint

I had some inspiration yesterday on a new look for my family site. Previously, the family site design just copied this blog design (with some tweaks) to make it easier. I had an idea to show off some of the great photos I have in my collection to visitors of the site. Last night and today I put it … [Read more...]

Kreativ with a “K”

Award

Seems I've been tagged with the KreativBlogger award by Julie at GenBlog. Thank you very much. I guess I'm supposed to tag 5 others according to the rules. I'm hoping I can find 5 bloggers that can be tagged. I usually get caught at the end of these, which I'm used to since it comes with … [Read more...]

It was also statring to load a bit slow, at least for … [Read more...]

I've been out of the "genealogy circuit" here for the last few weeks, so that's why I've been slow on the posts. I'm working on … [Read more...]

Dad/Son meet Mom/Daughter

I only checked a few generations before I gave up editing them via the website. I'll re-upload the GEDCOM when I'm … [Read more...]

Here’s Johnny!

I'm back again or am planning on it at least. I know, I know, you've heard that before. Though, I have a lot more free time lately and I've already been doing some more research. I actually found some more leads and doing some more research using my Ancestry.com subscription. I have to admit that … [Read more...]
