Thanks for posting this, Jo Ann. This info is so much easier to find when shared on a blog, this will be around for your descendants to find in the future.Some of the beaut responses shared on Facebook will be very difficult to find.
ReplyDeleteNo problem Jill.
ReplyDeleteMost people on Facebook are friends and family but don't really comment or react to genealogy stuff, so I thought it better for here than there. I do have plans on writing up pages for each of the family members gone and pages with people still alive but no real info there. However, getting to it is proving to be more of an exercise because of other challenges I've had the last few years. Persistence is something I do well though. :)
