In pondering my musical heritage, one of my early memories is of the piano stool at Grandma Crawford’s. Posted in Uncategorized The Piano in Our Lives I even took my time and added each telephone book to my ‘research plan’ document for my grandmother!Įven though I haven’t added a single person to my tree, I feel that this week has been very beneficial in that it has caused me to go back thru documentation and to ask questions about missing information. I’ve now tracked my grandmother from 1940 to 1960. I had never thought of using phone books as a genealogical source, but they proved to be a great tool. Since I had time while driving thru Topeka, I stopped and did some research at the Kansas State Historical Society using old TELEPHONE BOOKS.

The various locations had been mentioned by my mom over the years but I didn’t have any street addresses. While driving around Emporia this week, I started wondering where all my grandmother had lived. By tracking events in this manner, it should help identify issues with data as well as provide hints for finding more information. The second idea is the use of a timeline. This should be a great way to share those photos with distant cousins. The concept of using a closed Facebook group to share family photos jumped out at me as I’ve been scanning a lot of photos this past week. With this slow process, I am about to finish scanning and documenting my parents, my brothers and their children.ĭuring the week, I picked up on two ideas that I want to implement. I’ve tried to be diligent about adding the media to the source and about designating the quality of the source. In the process, I’ve been learning my way around Roots Magic and source citations.

Scanning the notebooks is slower, but it has allowed me to check and update source documentation as I go. I switched from scanning my file folders to scanning my family notebooks. Scanning, scanning and more scanning! My ‘paperless’ project and my ‘genealogy do-over’ projects merged this week. Posted in genealogy | Tagged #52ancestors Do-Over Week Three The poem, God Hath Not Promised, was on her funeral card and sums up her attitude toward life: Winnie’s life of challenges actually began at the age of 10 when her mother died. Before the age of 60, Winnie would bury her third child, L.R., who died suddenly while in college. Winnie and Leon managed to struggle thru the dust bowl and depression of the 30’s even with my grandfather being laid off of work for about a year. My dad was born just a couple of years before the start of the great depression. About a month before her 18th birthday, she watched her first born child, Betty Jean, die within a day of birth. She married my grandfather, Leon Crawford, at age 16. As a wife and mother, my grandmother, Winnie Crawford, had more than her share of challenges.
