Less than 2 weeks til Texas!

I am sitting enjoying a 62 degree day and boy does it feel great! I can't believe we leave for Texas soon. I can't wait to get down there and get busy researching family history. I have the exact location in the cemetery where there is a plot of 8 family members thanks to some volunteers who come in and map cemeteries and help load info online. It is people like these that make finding our legacies easier and it opens the door to all the wonderful stories of the people who came before us. Family history is more than just gathering names and dates, it is about gathering the occupations, events and daily life that shaped our ancestors lives and make us who we are. It warmed my heart to see how our family has carried on the names of our ancestors through the generations. Those people must have been loved and highly thought of for that kind of dedication. Enough on the soapbox! Just really proud to be able to do this and I thank my husband, Roger and niece, Stephanie for supporting my adventures! Couldn't do it without them! Karen
