Yesterday I had no deaths, but today I have no weddings. I wonder if the lack of weddings is in any related to it being the 13th? Maybe I had superstitious relatives? I'll have to wait and see what results I get in the succeeding months.
Births

Genealogy is like a jigsaw puzzle, but you don't have the box top, so you don't know what the picture is supposed to look like. As you start putting the puzzle together, you realize some pieces are missing, and eventually you figure out that some of the pieces you started with don't actually belong to this puzzle. I'll help you discover the right pieces for your puzzle and assemble them into a picture of your family.
