Occasionally, I think that I have worked a lifetime finding the trails of my ancestors and yet failed to organize those files in a way that makes sense.
I am equally challenged by the sharing (or lack of) the discoveries and surprises, the human drama stuff. Here are a few forgotten files I found on my computer and their relevancy to the families I cherish as my own.
I think that, for now, I will open one file at a time and post it in some type of format that gives clarity and direction. My first such effort can be viewed; this is research conducted by my Dad, Wiley Benjamin Hill, years ago. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1F-9kbDO1QJ7CP8KOED9he19FvWYZ0OWdjeFk6ncfinw/edit?usp=sharing
It is just a tidbit, but every tidbit teaches us something about the resources that can be searched.
I will
show the information, for posterity's sake by entering the details, if
possible, at the FamilySearch.org website. I'll let you know how it
comes out!
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.
