Ancestry/Genealogy

It's been so nice. Am still working that cemetery, but getting more into it. Trying to find censuses, various certificates, and stories to accompany the memorials, and it has been so interesting reading everything. I know someday, somebody like me, will be so happy that all that is there.

I haven't been on DU in so long, because I have been working my own lines, and the lines of others in this cemetery. I have made so many "Friends' thanks to it. Which has only expanded my research process on my own lines. I like to think of it as genealogical karma. If you all get the chance, get out there and start snapping pictures!

Today I just reunited an elderly lady in Greece with her Cousins in Ohio. Her granddaughter in Greece had contacted me (I have the same last name as her great aunt) and hoped I was a distant cousin that could help. I actually am a married into the family one, but not quite what she was looking for. She told me her YiaYia (grandmother in Greek) was so happy when she called the people (and they were thrilled also) I had found for her. All thanks to one 1940 US Census and one obit. It is so fun!
