Busy, busy!

Well it's been almost a month since my last post because I have been busy with researching. I found another distant relative who has been working on one family line since the mid 70's and we shared some basic info with each other. He will publish a book on the family line soon and hopefully my family and my cousins will be mentioned through their mothers and our grandmothers. I now have a few photos on that line, and he even had some info on another one of my maternal lines because it intersected with the line we share, so I got more info there also! I now have the ancestral home areas for two lines back into Europe. My resolution is to get my genealogy organized so I can see everything I have and get to it easier. I will print and fill out forms, then file in a new file system, at least that is my plan. I hope to make layouts to go with much of the info I find and photos when possible. I won a prize of a gift card at Amazon and bought myself a few genealogy books, so that was a great treat! One can never have too many books for genealogy.

Wow lucky you to find a distant relative with the same passion for family history.
I agree that half the battle is keeping the information we find in some sort of easily accessable form. It just seems to grow and grow and it isn't always easy to find what we want!!
Good luck with the new system.
