👋 HI Everyone! Has been a while, I know~

I have had a lot going on these past few months.

One of the neat things we did, was we bought a house!

I have been setting up my new office and going through all of my files/documents/records as I do it. The goal is to get better organized!

I was making reference books on my direct lines and Ancestors and decided to share them. Still have tons of work to do, but believe I have about 85% of it done and needed a visual of the whole of the work and to use as reference of where I need to focus more work on.

These research books are the Ancestors of my Grandparents.
