First time participant in these prompts but I hope I can keep it up!
This week’s (week 25) theme: “FAN Club.” In genealogy the FAN club refers to someone’s friends, associates, and neighbors – the people we often need to research to find answers about our family. Who is a member of the FAN club in your family tree? Who did you make a discovery about because you looked a bit wider? Or… is there someone in the family who was known for being a fan of a certain celebrity? Be creative!
First, to be honest, I hadn’t even heard the term FAN Club before as it relates to genealogy! I mean, I’m a HUGE fangirl and part of a pop culture fan club called Earpers, who are all fans of the TV show Wynonna Earp, but this was a completely different meaning of the term.
That being said, I knew immediately who I wanted to talk about when I saw this theme.
