Genealogy Sharing - Kyla Style
In case you haven't noticed, I pretty much do genealogy 24x7, especially now that my littles have become big peeps making their own way in the world. Not to mention that I now get paid to help other families research and grow their family trees and all my training hours help me do my job better... you get the idea. I love this stuff.
I do realize, however, that the things that I know about genealogy are sometimes not common knowledge and not all the things I find will be of interest to all of my family lines.
I call almost everyone 'cousin', because in some way they are. That whole 2nd, 3rd, 4th, removed thing is something that still gets a bit confusing to me, so DON'T worry if you (or I) don't always get our relationships explained right. Family is complicated, yall! ITS OK to mess it up sometimes. You have my permission!
My idea: a Sunday evening zoom call where I will be giving little explanations about interesting family stuff. Right now, its on zoom and recorded to post to youtube. For now, its going to be my Granath/Goodwin/Covington/Rinker family, because I have recently been given an incredible gift - my cousin Joe has sent me 11 boxes of photos, negatives, slides and other priceless family heirloom items. As I scan, process and document them, I want to share them with my cousins by the dozens all over the world, so this is my best idea for now. If it doesn't work, we'll "drop, kick and punt" and try something new. Another reason is because I researched those lines quite a bit on my Utah trip and want to share that juicy new stuff. Don't worry Ogle/Hawkins/Rue family, if it works out, I'll do an afternoon call for yall once I get a routine going!
If you would like an invite to the zoom call to hear it live, let me know, otherwise please watch the recording on youtube. Thanks!!
