Well, I certainly haven't posted in a while! My last post was January 15 for my blogiversary, and before that it was December 1. I have nothing but my health to blame, but I've decided I need to start writing again anyway, and what better day to start than on my birthday? I turned 60 today, and coincidentally Randy Seaver provided a theme for Saturday Night Genealogy Fun that works nicely with a birthday — writing about myself. So let's get back in the blogging habit!
Okay, here are my answers.

It's not fair we could only choose 4 favorite record groups. I like all of yours too.
ReplyDeleteAnd I like directories, land, and deeds also! It's a good thing we're not restricted to only four categories when we do research!
ReplyDeleteHi Janice, Good to see you on SNGF. I'd say you've lived in the most distant place!
ReplyDeleteHi, Linda, it's good to be back. I hope I can keep it going. And I hadn't thought about most distant, but you're right, I might qualify.
