I have found a great blog carnival called the Carnival of Genealogy. This edition involves us writing about having dinner with four ancestors…my story: (fiction to follow) I’m searching through documents in the courthouse basement and realize I’m starting to get a little hungry. My dad, who always goes with me, says he isn’t the least [...]
