COUSIN SEARCHIN'

Spent the better part of the day contacting cousins on the Internet via email and facebook to update my Rootsmagic database. It is SO awesome to be able to be in such close contact so often! I've also been digesting a LARGE stack of information from Rick Perry, a family researcher kinfolk who has generously shared his data with me and I am so grateful. A few years back, he came with his mom and cousin Mary Mayo to our Ogle family reunion in Crosbyton and we were so blessed to be able to get to know them! With his help and that of a few other RM gurus, I'm developing a system to document my sources so that I can share it all soon with everyone. There is just so much data, I'm overwhelmed, but with God's grace and some time, I get closer to having it ready every day. I plan to share lots of what I have found out this year at the Ogle reunion in Crosbyton, Texas, its August 7-8, mark your calendars NOW. (that would be the shameless reunion plug)
