Zalewski Family Genealogy

Here are some good geneablog reads for this week from around the tubes.

• Sadly, Elyse’s mother passed away this week. Elyse posted a wonderful, heartfelt post about her mother on her blog, Elyse’s Genealogy Blog. Send your thoughts and prayers her way this week.
• Jasia at Creative Gene wrote an interesting post about genealogy as therapy. I know that it can help me calm down and zone out during tough times.
• Randy Seaver at Genea-Musings was puzzled, as was I, about some of the genetic genealogy claims on the last episode of “Faces of America.” He analyzes the info in his post.

So, it looks like I’m running low on headstone photos. Darn you, Tombstone Tuesday. I’m going to start posting headstones from my wife’s family research.

This week’s headstone is from her great-great grandparent’s Gustave Ferdinand GYRION and his wife Josephine FRANCOIS. Gustave was born in 1858 in Belgium and passed away in 1934. Josephine was born in 1870 in Door Co., Wisconsin and passed away 21 Feb 1950 in Cook Co., Illinois. They are buried in Plover Cemetery in Plover, Portage Co., Wisconsin.
