-=>I distinctly overheard Donna Lewis say to Wanda Guin<=-
Donna,
 >  DL> It's about your other "hobby" which can be a lot more addictive that
 >  DL> crafting.
 DL> No! it's searching for bodies.  (For others reading this, genealogy)
 DL> I know there are several others here on the crafting echo that are
 DL> also into genealogy.
I didn't know this!
 DL> Making covers for the notebooks that we keep the family records in (at
 DL> least, I keep hard copies.) is one way.
Right now, everything is entered into the computer, (and backed up) and
writtten notes are kept.  That is a good idea, though.  We haven't been
working on this very long, but it is so interesting!
I also have been taking pictures of the headstones with written dates
on them when we go to someone's gravesite.  Then we are positive of
dates.
I have a lot of poster-boards, and would like to start making family
trees on them, with different colored branches for the individual
families.
take care,
Wanda
... A hug warms the soul and places a smile in the heart.
