I spent some time labeling headstone pictures

6. Yes, I love genealogy and still do it

In fact, now my husband and I are the archivists of the genealogy for both sides of our family. His mother was so much into it, she assembled a book with every person that had her maiden name as theirs and traced that branch of the family back to New Amsterdam. Her maternal grandfather had already traced that branch back as far as he could.

My Mom took her research back as far as the American Revolution to prove to her mother in law that though she was from a poor Alabama family, she had just as good roots. Grandmother was into DAR and joined in 1911 and took her family research back to multiple "Patriots." Mom ended up with more than Grandmother had, LOL.

But we now have all their research that I am trying to digitize and organize - plus I have to figure out who gets to inherit is when we're gone!
