I haven't updated in forever....

Hello cousins,

I'm still here! I just haven't updated this blog in forever. I started this blog when I first started working on genealogy as a way to help me work through some questions I had. I then took a very long break from genealogy. I am back into it now, but I don't know if I'll have time to update this blog anymore.  I won't rule it out but I just don't have time for it now.

If you need to contact me for anything genealogy related, feel free to post a comment. Or, I'm over at ancestry.com as melody27888. You can find me there. I have since done a lot of work on the tree! It's so fun to read my past posts when I was a genealogy newbie. :) In addition to the ongoing hunt for more ancestors, I'm now in the process of trying to verify my info, as when I first started, I copied a lot of info from other trees I found. Sometimes I do find errors. I'm also trying to compile all of my genealogy info together so I'll have a nicer presentation when I go to family reunions.

Oh, and I've also done my ancestry dna, so if anyone is interested in that or has questions about it, let me know! My mother did the test as well, and she is 100% Nash County (Her parents are both from there. My dad was from NY so I had some additional results). But if you're interested in Nash County and especially the surnames mentioned in this blog, you'll probably mostly have Great Britain and Europe West in your results. Perhaps even a little bit of Scandinavia and Ireland too. Or maybe even a trace of Native American as well. :)

Happy ancestor hunting, everyone!
