I survived January and February… barely.

It’s been a weather eventful winter here in Michigan and January and February felt like we were just hanging on for dear life. But in the background plans were being made. So, stay tuned for a number of event announcements, starting with this one (below) put on annually but my local library system, Capital Area District Libraries. There are sessions for all skill levels and time for discussion with fellow researchers. Follow this link for a pdf of the handout: Family History Open House 2019 Final.

Iced Tree, 2013No doubt 2013 will be a memorable holiday season for many Michiganders purely because of our ill-timed weather events—freezing rain, snow, more snow and the possibility of wind today—causing countless power outages. But I’m hoping everyone can find some sparkle and shine in their holidays. Stay warm and enjoy the gift of friends and family, in whatever form they come!

Find joy in your holiday season!

Happy hunting,

Jess

Trotter & Johnson Uncles, 1982

It is time for picnics, parks, and playing outside.

This was at a gathering including both sides of my family (the Detroit side and the Kent Co, MI side) in Lansing, MI. Evidently their version of playing outside is backgammon. These are two of my Trotter uncles—Chris and Eric—and my Great Uncle Louis Johnson.

Happy hunting,

Jess
