Ate lunch with a friend in the small town where my grandma was born.
Saw a distant relative who's in his 80s and talked briefly. His grandparents and my great grandparents were siblings. A brother and sister married a sister and brother. Not quite inbreeding, but typical for that town. Most are descended from 1700s settlers. My ancestors are "newcomers" who arrived in the 1840s and 50s. #Genealogy #CoSoGenealogy
My great uncle (with fiddle, 1895-1990) would tell me stories of his grandpa George W. Parrott (1818-1907). It's amazing to me I have first hand stories of a man who would be 204 this fall. When my great uncle was naughty as a little boy he would hide under the bed. One time he'd done something bad enough that his grandpa and another person were armed with a poker and a broom to get him out from under the bed. ๐

I was up past 3 am working on family tree due to a major discovery. I am exhausted and can't figure out why I'm awake. #Genealogy #cosogenealogy
Does anyone on here have a subscription to Newspapers.com? I am wanting to read an obituary. Ancestry pulled data from it, but it's confusing. #Genealogy #cosogenealogy
A couple years ago I discovered a half brother through AncestryDNA. He was adopted and didn't know his birth parents. His father was established back then. Today I figured out who his mother was. Am happy to have solved what I think is the final mystery in my family. #Genealogy #cosogenealogy

#Christian. Theoretically a #poet. #Genealogy nut. ๐บ๐ฒ(๐ฎ๐ช๐ซ๐ท๐ฌ๐ง๐ฉ๐ช) Theoretically a photographer of #birds. But now I have a dog, George, whom birds flee.
