A New Direction

For the past two years, I’ve presented information about my ancestors with a “This Day in History” — or, rather, HistorTree — perspective.  Each post was a cumulative of several days’ writing and pulled from my many years of research.

I’ve decided to go in a new direction with my blog.  In addition to my “this day” posts, I’ll begin using my blog to document tidbits I find along the way.  I’ve also begun a self-directed, year-long preparation period for becoming a professional genealogist.  I’ll likely post more about methodology and have some entries where I put my research and analytical skills into practice.

And, as always, my favorite people in history — my ancestors — will be our special guests.
