CHECKING BACK IN ON YOUR GENEALOGY and FAMILY HISTORY PROJECT? Please Do!

Just a reminder to those of you who put your project aside...  DO check to see what, if anything is added to databases you've been using at least a couple times a year.  Also check the internet for new sites or additions to archives and libraries that help you understand (and write about!) your family history.  I know it's a tough call to quit, knowing that you could publish and then find more information, but maybe it could be said that a genealogy project is always in process.  So if you must leave that project, leave it in the hands of someone you know will use your work with respect and continue it.

Just did that for a client who I hadn't done any work for in about two years or more! Wow!

OKLAHOMA is rich in resources and a very interesting state, lots of German Immigrants, Native Americans.  We were surprised and elated to find that there WAS more information relating to his German immigrant family posted sometime in those two years. This included photographs of those who would be great grandparents and a grandfather.
