    Thank you Jana for including my post in this week's Follow Friday ~ Fab Finds for May 31, 2013!
    Following Heather Rojo's lead over at Nutfield Genealogy http://nutfieldgenealogy.blogspot.com/2013/05/honor-roll-project-memorial-day-2013.html
    I've really enjoyed putting some genealogy information on the web that may help a fellow researcher sometime.
    I'll bet if we all look we'll find we have access to some genealogy info that we can post on our blog for a future researcher. It's a thought! :)
    Thanks again Jana for mentioning me in your Fabulous Finds!!!
    Have a wonderful weekend!
