  2. Thank you, Jana! Your list keeps me motivated to read the blogs and reading the blogs keeps me motivated to write on my own. I'm happy to see Thomas Kemp's article listed, as he was my encouragement to start writing my OWN story, as well as those of my ancestors. I want my grandchildren and other descendants to know about me, as I'm their ancestor. Thank you again!
