So far the user interface is REALLY clunky and very non-intuitive. I very much do not like having to use my name and identify my location. I have nothing to hide, but this blog has no reputation that I've heard of, it just happens to be convenient to my course. My blog is on LiveJournal, and likely to stay there.
I would like to join a group, but they are not well-described, or easy to find.
I'm not planning to post any genealogy information here, but it's all over on Ancestry.

This Old House
Wish I could remember the words. But this old house is soon to be no more.
This old house was home from fall 1948 until Jan 10, 2011. At that time it crossed over to being
a reminder of what we had, what we could have had and what we were denied.
This old house had it's timbers rocked and it's soul fulfilled many times over in it's life time.
We started with gutting the ancient newspapers, bottles, cans and debris out of the place. We then
had a huge bonfire to burn

I've operated a free family history website since 2000. And, over the years I've seen many genealogy and family history websites come and go. I can understand why as it's expensive to run a larger genealogy website, and I appreciate all of those who give it a try.
What I have a problem with are those websites that claim to be a free family history website, but then end up charging you for access. I mean, I guess you can get away with calling your own company a free web

I have very few tools I use for my family history research, and maybe someone can point me in the right direction to improve my "toolbox" but I thought I'd share.

It’s been a little over a month since my last blog post where I shared how I was heading out to Los Angeles to help my parents in their transition to an assisted living facility. I’m happy to report that they are settled in and making the adjustment to their new lifestyle. They have their moments of “how did we get here?” but for the most part, they appreciate the regular and delicious meals, the nurse who makes sure they each take their medication on time each day, the plethora of activities av

With the Passage of Time
With the Passage of Time, we pray God will take away our pain. With the passage of time we trust we will learn to
Trust God more. The passage of time means things are going to change we must look forward to the change.
To look back is to defeat the purpose of the change. To have good memories is a good thing. Look forward to '
remembering the good things. Let God have the bad memories and help you move forward.
Death is a time of celebration, but alas we do
The Past
Wrinkled faces
each indentation telling a story
of a time past,
and whimsical dreams.
Indentations of tormented moments,
deep thoughts,
and life through squinted eyes.
The face once smooth
now holds wrinkles,
it can now cradle and contain
the tears that once flowed.
Happiness of birth and sorrow
from death,
driven aches of fear,
and the thrill from delight.
The past etched in the faces
like words etched in granite stone,
My Dearly Beloved
I am really pleased with the recent digitized records at familysearch.org. I found some amazing records for Nansemond, Virginia that had been really elusive, and just recently I found that there are some 1905 New York census records. I looked up some of my ancestors, and found them easily. Apparently there are some problems that still need to be worked out for some of these records, but I find it just so encouraging that there are as many as there are, and that they are so availiable.
