Genealogist's Journal 11 & 12 Nov 2009

Yesterday, being Vet's Day, I thought about all of the people in my charts who served. I haven't got a really good list like the other genealogist's who blogged about it. That's peer pressure!

Comments in all my blogs are still sitting in my SPAM and for some reason are only appearing in the report I get from my Internet hosting provider on Thursday's. I received another comment on Perpetual Care. It was about a sexton stealing the funds. Wow, is this an awful topic.

My daughter and son-in-law picked out a laptop to have as a second computer. Guess I'll buy it for them but the battery life doesn't impress me. Although, I must admit, I would use a laptop as a desktop computer and mine are mostly plugged in here in the house all the time. Are we never too far from an electrical outlet?

I have a lead on one of the wives of Capt. Benjamin Burrows! I am excited and it is working out to be the right person. I know that if I don't hear from her again, just having her name and her first husband's suname is helping to identify her.

I am off trying to finish my holiday shopping today. I am thankful not to have too much to buy this year. Stores are not well stocked.
