Treasure Chest Thursday------- MMMM big ?

Treasure Chest Thursday ----------MMMMMMM big ?

 Yes, I think it was a Treasure Chest Thursday but not maybe in a way one would think.

  We gave testimony in regards to someone who walked amongst us today.  It was good to hear the words

  that were spoken. 

  My family is blessed to walk amongst these people and claim them as long long time friends more like family.

  One does not need to see them often to remember all the good things and…

More Finding Family on Message Boards

  Today I went to the message boards to see what I could see.

  

   I put in a surname and started reading the boards response.

   What a surprise to find, there was information that I had not looked for before.

   The boards change as people answer queries so some times they do not move for weeks or months and other times

    they move rather quickly.

    It reminded me to look for more than just a surname when…

Genealogy at Christmas Time - Yes Family Does Find You

Genealogy at Christmas Time - Yes Family Does Find You

Genealogy at Christmas Time I wrote about yesterday as to why to  write Christmas letters and what the many benefits of the season can bring. 

 Opening my e-mail early yesterday morning, brain was on Michigan time,  I received a letter from a new found Scott cousin. He has information to fill in some of my blanks which in turn will fill in at least 10 other Scott researchers blanks.

 It is…

Genealogy at Christmas Time

   

   Genealogy at Christmas Time

   Genealogy at Christmas Time, "but I am way to busy", is a statement that I frequently hear.

   I can not think of a holiday that is more appropriate to discuss and share Genealogy than this Holiday Season.

   It is like let me count the ways.

   1. You are already exchanging friendly greetings to family and friends.

   2.  Did it ever occur to you that the family friend may be kin?

   3.  People…

Christmas is Almost Here,

 Christmas is Almost Here

 I have been doing the Advent of Christmas on one of my blogs. I will print it out Christmas Eve and put in folders for the various adult members of our family.

 I think it was a great thing to do so I could share data about Christmas's past. It seems we seldom set around and talk about what we did last year or the year before or ten years ago.  So the younger generation is not getting the information passed down to them to carry…

More on Pictures, Bunnies are Special

These darling bunnies were born in October while I was at our sons.  The Mom has a black with gold flecked coat and so do some of the younger ones.  

I raised white and black bunnies but do not recall ever any red ones or orangebrown coated bunnies.

I bet they are double in size almost now. Bunnies grow quickly and they are called Kits.

My…

Christmas Gifts that you may Enjoy

  

 We all shared the stories of buy American for this year.  I am not sure if we all posted what we could buy as Americans and Genealogists. 

 I see some bloggers are posting their Wish Lists on their blog.  Wow, now we are blogging Santa Claus, Kris Kringle, and all the other jolly fellows out there.  

  Yes, there is a Santa Claus. :>) 

   Here are some suggestions:

   1. Ticket to Chula Vista Genealogical Society…

Sorting Saturday Pictures and more Pictures

Sorting Saturday

Actually I started sorting yesterday so items could be sent to others.  I did not have those items until I went through the boxes I acquired from my Mom's estate. 

I find some of the items have been presorted and will be sent on to others. I thought my brother and sister and I had presorted them all before I brought them home. I guess not. I know I left envelopes of pictures for nieces and nephews and brothers and sons before I left northern…
