I have started a new tradition of choosing a birthday project or a yearlong project. Last year was 50 sunsets and sunrises. I decided this year to choose a genealogy project. I am calling it the Dead People Files.
Goals
Research 13 ancestors and present that information on the blog. I will be using some of the 52 ancestors in 52-week writing prompts. Below is the start of the ancestors that I will for sure be researching. (4/15)
Lulu Pearl Howard Liston (Hoyt/Liston Tree)
John Lendman (Lendman Tree)
Eliza Greene Perkins Doane (Hoyt/Liston Tree)
John Christian Brenneman (Hoyt/Liston)
Ida Shadwell Lendman (Lendman)
Do a DNA test on myself - I am interested in learning more about this
Improve my genealogy research - I plan on reading some genealogy books that are from the required reading list from the BYU and Boston University Genealogy programs. I think a good goal would be at least 3 books
Do one genealogy field trip? I think this might be open to interpretation
find a better way to share or present my genealogy research
write better genealogy stories.
scan more photos and become more proficient in this
