In Virginia, protests arise as a forlorn cemetery is dug up to make way for high school football - The Washington Post
I've heard that football is King in the South; is this story an example of that? Dick Eastman's Blog caught my interest this morning and so I went on to read the original story. Why was my interest piqued?
Not long ago, I uncovered in my ancestral search, many surnames that go back to Virginia roots. I had thought that all the graves in all the cemteries were mostly mapped, located, and identified. I think that I don't think; I'm living in a type of genealogy Disney World, in the magic kingdom, but I don't have to stay there.
Read, people, read. Learn, discover, explores, and question. We have (I have) to learn to use my 'noggin; in family history, in life!
Historically, hats have represented one's occupation, one's hobby, or one's passion. I wear the Family History Hat because I am passionate about genealogy.
