As ...So glad to hear you're back at it, B.E.! <br /><br />As for the family history - I started some stuff when my mom was here and met some long lost relatives on FB (they live in Argentinia of all places - family ties from a great, great uncle who went from Scotland to Argentinia as a missionary!). I started mapping it out, but what a lot of work. I have too many other projects - so I let it slide!<br /><br />And can I say how cool it is, Stacy, that your ancestor was one of the first women to be executed as a witch!

It happens. <br /><br />Someone in my family researched our ancestors once, and some trace back to Mongolia.

Not as quickly as I'd like, but I'll settle for the pace I'm going =)<br /><br />I adore family histories. My aunt has our family mapped out all the way back to the 1200s. She used to work for the government, so she had access to files that are normally difficult to come by. We have a lot of French pirates and Scottish nobles in our line ;)<br /><br />My dad's family (he isn't my actual biological dad) has traced their family history back to the Roman Period (his aunts are mormon... which should explain a lot lol).Natalie Murphyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01116611923169722657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6076293789081887442.post-3987296005239167142012-04-03T13:10:25.979-05:002012-04-03T13:10:25.979-05:00Love genealogy.

I descend from both of her daughters because, yep, cousins married!Stacy McKitrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07898731847653710759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6076293789081887442.post-18463851581021288062012-04-03T08:56:27.214-05:002012-04-03T08:56:27.214-05:00I'm the most distracted off track person I kno...I'm the most distracted off track person I know. I start something then another thing catches my eye and I'm off in hot pursuit.<br />Genealogy is one of my interests. I've tracked our family back through several generations but that's as far as I got. It's interesting and hard to quit once I start.<br />I'm working on the second book in my VADA FAITH series, titled SWEET BABY JAMES. I write mainstream or women's fiction.<br />I also suffer from depression, some in winter, some other times.<br />Best wishes with what you are working on today! BarbB.
