My original goal for this web blog was to put the information I discovered into one location where it would be easily accessible. I was doing it for myself, if I’m honest, but I know that there are other family members that are interested, and other genealogists who share branches of my family tree.
The best source of genealogy information is familysearch.org, the website run by the Church of Latter Day Saints. Not only do they appear to have the largest database, they offer it to genealogists at no charge. Almost everyone else charges for a subscription, and many of those subscriptions lead you to the database of familysearch.org.
The LDS website uses an alphanumeric identifier for every person listed in their database. My father, Jerome Paskiewicz, for example, is LD58-8KN in the familysearch.org archives. I will be updating my blog info to include these identifiers. This should make it easier for other genealogists to connect my discoveries with theirs. That is where I will start.
Over the past 10 years, I received a few comments that have gone unanswered, because I haven’t been getting notifications. It never occurred to me that people were trying to contact me. If you have tried to contact me and didn’t get a response, try again. I will answer you. At this point, I really don’t want to respond to five year old comments.
Till next time.
