well for all the hours I spent in Holy Cross cemetery and Olivet, you'd think I should have more to show for it... I found several extended family members- particularly from the Winkler's O'Reilly side. I was so exhausted when I got home (old cemeteries can be a real bother when they have such obscure 'addresses' for the permanent residences. trust me, this is why I have these virtual cemetery tours, because once you've spent hours trying to find one grave, you don't wish it on anyone...) I uploaded my pictures from the camera but didn't put them on the web yet. If anyone this year complains to me about it, I'll be very VERY surprised.
Next time I'm going to the library. And next time I go cemetery hopping, I'm going to ask for more specific directions from the office, looking at the plat maps.
The joy's in the journey of preserving our past while it's still in the present... Come read about our family trees and how we research and preserve them!
LOOKEE- LOOKEE! FAMILYOLOGY has an ACTUAL FAMILY TREE that ANYONE can view for FREE on Tribalpages.com! Come take a look and see how everything you read about here fits in chronological context... It's also a work in progress...
