Still on our trip, leaving Ocala on Monday for NYC, arriving on Tuesday. Spent three days with daughter in cold NYC during the day. Left on Thursday for Chicago, arriving on Friday. After a stop for brunch at Lou Mitchell’s, we boarded the train for Kansas City. We visited cousin Kathleen on Saturday in Pittsburg, Kansas, and Roger & Annette in Kansas City on Sunday.

Resolving
Conflicts: Element 4 of the GPS
For the theme of “Conflicting Clues,” I wrote
about resolving conflicts, the fourth element of the GPS, using one of my
collateral lines as an example. Randy Seaver highlighted this post in his "Best of the Genea-Blogs."
SNGF—Describe An
Ancestor/Relative's Activities.
I were to ask Gemini
about the activities of one of our ancestors, and I asked about the work my FIL
would have done at Burtonwood airbase during WWII.
The Origins of Johan Anton Hork and his
Ancestors – 12 for ’26

Johan Anton Hork.
Webinars/Courses Viewed: none
Other:
We got a lot of
visiting in this week, first with our daughter, Margaret, in NYC, and then Norman’s
cousins in Pittsburg and Kansas City. The snow was pretty in Central Park. It’s
been raining in Missouri and Kansas.
I am reading:
- Angels of the Pacific
by Elise Hooper (not feeling this book)
- Sackett by Louis L’Amour—FINISHED!
Photos for this week.
Genealogists are great at documenting our
ancestors’ lives, but not so great at documenting our own. I’ll write about
what I’ve been doing the past week. This idea came from Randy Seaver of
Genea-Musing, who started this meme.
