Inspired by the "52 Ancestors in 52 Weeks" challenge, created by professional genealogist Amy Johnson Crow (amyjohnsoncrow.com) I have created this blog for sharing my thoughts and responses to the weekly prompts.
The idea of the challenge is to get us thinking
about our family tree in new and creative ways. I have been researching on and
off for over 20 years and I have so much information that it is
overwhelming. I want to share it in interesting ways, not just as a series of
charts, names, and dates. I am really hoping this challenge helps me to do just
that.
I am not expecting that this blog will contain only one
family line but will have stories, bios, pictures, and other
things my brain comes up with on all the family lines I have researched. This
includes my ancestors: Davis, Woodman, and Gordon and my husband’s ancestors:
Campbell and Leblanc. I don’t want to recreate the family tree here but share the
discoveries I’ve made along the way! My goal is to have a series of posts that
can accompany the family tree data to create a memorable family keepsake for
the next generation.
Welcome to those who want to follow along as I rediscover
the stories within my family tree.
