Getting back into the research game …

I started pursuing my family’s history way back in the olden days when accessing the Internet meant tying up the phone line and listening to the beeps and buzzes of the modem. And things were painfully slow! In spite of all that I managed to make some interesting progress … and then … life happened … or more specifically, some changes in life happened. We moved, new jobs, and there just wasn’t enough time in the day to research anymore.

Now, though, I’m seeing a slew of resources available … and there are now some others in my family who are quite interested in our family stories and genealogy. So, this has been top of my mind lately.

I may not be able to devote many hours to this, but I’m working on a plan of spending a little time each week to keep up the research and improve my documentation of sources and facts.

And part of that is the start of this blog …

I’ve been blogging since 2006, but those either have to do with my profession or just some personal ramblings. This one is devoted exclusively to my research.

So, let the fun restart!
