Puzzle Pieces, That is What They Are

Putting together new data into my program, my mind said, new pieces to the puzzle.

Yes, they are new pieces to the puzzle.  That is why we ask or are supposed to be asking each family member for help in resolving our lost data.

Each member of the family takes away a different thought besides their shared thoughts. Each person remembers activities differently in prospective to their selves instead of…

Out Fall Seminar turned out with a small crowd but great speakers. We learned a lot about Germany and Research and we learned a lot about Scottish/Irish Ancestors.

  Before the  drought and we had lawn.  I am told this is a Texas Umbrella Tree. It sheds flowers, seed pods and leaves depending on the season.  We have trimmed it back many times, our friends never got bigger than 8 feet in Spring Valley, CA. It obviously likes this clay ground.  Do you have a connection to trees?  It reminds me of all the relatives…

  A traumatic event happened here recently.  Has it happened in your family?  If so, did it affect how the family 

 responds to events involving family activities.?

  Recently a distant family member went missing, 20 years of age, at college.  We see this all the time any more

 but it was on our doorstep.  Late today we got word from the parents he has been found and is in hospital, more data

 to come.

  Come to McPherson, Kansas  11 and 12 July 2015, and share our family history. Share stories and pictures and information.  They do this every three years or at least try to. Last one was near the family homestead in Troy Grove, La Salle Co., Ill.

 Going to try a different approach, this time.  I have three siblings all younger than I am. 

  One sorta interested in genealogy, the rest, I am not sure about.

 Any time we can prevent or forestall having a disease, we owe it to…

  Today, Shirley Becker gave a small presentation on phishing. Telling members what damage it can do and what to look for in your emails or phone calls.  Remember a bank will never email you data a Phishing person asks, if in doubt, first always call the bank and ask.

  1. You can call your bank and verify if they…
