Subject: [AZORES-Genealogy] Life is changing  : )


 I bought a book, many, many years ago when I first thought about 
researching my family lines back through the generations.  I tucked it away 
and thought when I have all my information I would write it ever so nicely in 
the book.  Now that I have pealed  away and in the middle of dejunking 
the spare room I have once again discovered this book. 

The Book is called " Our Family Tree ".  It is one of those books you 
would write all the info in if you did not have a computer.  It's copyright 
is 1977 and I did not have a computer at that time.  It has all what you 
would expect a genealogy book to have, Mom's line, Dad's line, family stories, 
places where they lives, etc. 

As we traveled back to CA I pulled out the book and was looking through the 
pages and thinking how far I have come with now having a computer and how I can 
arrange the pages to my own format.  I will use the book to teach my 10 
year old granddaughter how to be a genealogist.   

What I found interesting is the research area in the back of the book 
"helpful hints".  where to write to, bookstores which specialize 
in genealogical material, which listed "Eastman's Online Genealogy 
Newsletter" www.eogn.com  : )   

Way back when I thought about doing all this, the computer address sites 
were like reading greek and I was terrified of a computer.  

Now, I am so impressed with myself as I venture forward.  And, thanks 
to Cheri, will be doing DNA testig with my Mother.
