Great post. My kids are young but I am hoping I can get my oldest to get into family history.

For me, it is when I gather enough enformation that I begin toe "flesh out" the bare bones of my research --- that's when that ancestor, or even an ancestors's friend become real to me --- like a newly found friend. Thanks for putting words to the feeling.Joanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07948553013206247354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5324800784948486726.post-75885754732915594032011-10-23T17:23:07.116-07:002011-10-23T17:23:07.116-07:00You have put into words what I've felt so many...You have put into words what I've felt so many times. The shock of the close personal connection and the deep abiding respect and appreciation for my ancestors and their lives has been amazing. <br /><br />I so know what you mean by the experience being more intense for some than others. A photo will really send me to the ends of the earth for their life story. <br /><br />Great post and I'm with you...let's keep looking til the mush-mind sets in...I hope to have a decendent to take over by then...how about you?Sue McPeakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04927975578544675345noreply@blogger.com
