Calling all Genea-Musings Fans:
It's Saturday Night again -
Time for some more Genealogy Fun!!
Our assignment this eve of Christmas Eve from Randy Seaver of Genea-Musings is to:
1) Pick out a genealogy-oriented
Christmas gift for someone you know, admire, appreciate, or love. It could be
for a family member, someone in the genealogy community, or a friend or
colleague. Describe your genealogy gift to them.
Here's mine:
Since the time our family got together at the Spaghetti
Factory and showed them the article published in the Pittsburg Post-Dispatch of
my mother standing next to Louis Armstrong, who came to perform for a Junior
Woman’s Club benefit for purchasing an electrically controlled bed for the
Pittsburg Community Hospital.
My nephew, Ryan, thought it so cool and said I should write up a family history to share with the rest of the family. Since that time, I have been meaning to, but it seemed so many other things got in the way. So, if I had time between now and December 25, I would write the family history of our immediate family, including lots of photos, some taken by me, and others collected through the years taken by other family members. To keep it manageable, I shall stop with our grandparents but include the names of their ancestors.
I hope you can wait, Ryan, until next Christmas, for I plan
to begin working on this project! Anything to foster the love of family and
family history.
