Welcome to my Genealogy Blog.

Why not spend a minute or two at my Blog to see if there is anything interesting to read. Perhaps I've written something about your ancestor, gave a hint on how to locate something, provided a different way to do research, or just gave a glimpse into the world of genealogy research through words or photos. I try to make it light and enjoyable.

My roots are from New England (Connecticut, Massachusetts, Vermont, and New Hampshire), New York, New Jersey, Michigan, Illinois, Wyoming, and the Eastern Townships of Quebec, Canada.

Please check out the labels on the right side for articles. The header tabs at the top are a work in progress.

I also have a blog called Seeing New England. Why not visit it, to get a feeling for the area.

Mira Kilborn was my great-grandmother who committed suicide on the railroad tracks. If you wish to read about it, please see Not the Railroad Tracks.

I missed that earlier post. What a sad story.

Very clever to post the invitation and wedding record together. I like that!

How wonderful you have the invitation. I would love to have some more of mine, only have a small handful.

I will have to take the link to the other story after I finish this comment. Very sad. I think I only have one wedding invite in my collection of gene stuff. I also have a direct ancestor who was also married on Christmas Day....one of my paternal great great grandparents.

Thank you for your comments, and it is one of the things I treasure.
