21 Day Family History Challenge

Image
This is a really timely challenge as it will give me a great diving board to connect with you all as I am researching my family members' narratives!  The first ancestor I chose is going to take me a long time to put his story together.  Anyways this connections experiment is meant to help families grow closer together both with living relatives and our ancestors.  They offer many different plans with activities (they even have one for those of you who think your family tree is done!) and offer a make your own version if you want to mix and match.  All you need to do is go to their website , take their survey, and pick/make a plan!  See you all tomorrow!

Welcome to the Family History Hunt

Hello!  I really felt inspired to start this blog to share with the world my family's stories, give tips and tricks to help you on your hunt, and just celebrate those people whose blood runs through our veins. Through this deep dive into individuals, I hope to correct any mistakes that there may be and really get a good sense of who my ancestors were. Here is my current seven generation tree from Family Search with my first two generations edited out: I imagine through this journey some of this may change and that's fine.  Family History is a fluid science and as more sources become available we get a better sense of a person and their relationships.  As far as how I am going to organize my posts, I have no idea!  I will probably post about those that I feel more connected with and have more information on first.  I hope you enjoy!
