Lesson 9

                This is my cup of tea!!  I have been studying my family since I can remember. 

                I looked myself up and found myself seven times.  I found they have me one day older, but only a day not a year.  I am not listed at all by my maiden name. 

                I was able to get back to my Great-great-great grandmother.  However they have my great grandmother as an unmarried man.  I have found many others that are correct.  Pear Davis McCall has made this easy because she had a book published years ago.  That is why I looked her book up last week.  This part of my family has been traced to the 1700’s but I still like to look into things.

                I will have many hours of fun to come because of this lesson.        

                We have been using these for some of our patrons that have been looking for information and each time I learn more about using these tools.

  1. Keep at it, Lesa, there is always more to uncover! It's great for your library to have an on-site genealogist. Glad you were able to make some finds. I know you'll be back!
