Anniversary Number Four





It is my Fourth Anniversary of blog posting today!   




Thank you readers for following, commenting and encouraging me.

 I started this blog on 30 April 2014 to help people find resources to go beyond the birth, marriage and death records in learning about their ancestors. I always tried to do it with a story of one of my ancestors. I hope I have attained that goal and that some of my posts have helped you in your research. 

 This past year I did Patricia Greber's  Military Ancestor Challenge in November, and  I completed my Canada 150 posts in December . Since then I slowed down and now I just finished the 2018 Blogging A to Z Challenge. Of all the  genealogy bloggers out there, there were only a handful of us that did the challenge in the genealogy category. 

 Let's see what the next year will bring!!
