Week 1 2026: An Ancestor I Admire
I admire so many ancestors. I think a lot of us who research our family history are amazed at the things our ancestors lived through -- immigration, wars, deaths of loved ones, etc -- and I know I have frequently been overwhelmed with the sequence of events that had to happen for me to be here and thankful for everything they went through for me to be, well, me.
All of us could tell so many stories but I'm going to start 2026 and what I hope to be a year long reinvestment in genealogy research with the two people closest to me: my mom and my dad.
