Updates

 I've been working away @ WikiTree.  I'm working just on my own family history but I also participate in several projects: Native Americans; Civil War; Palatine Migration; my 2 One Name Studies; and a One Place Study.  

In addition, I've adopted a bunch of orphaned profiles with surnames that are in my family.  When I do that, I try to quickly find basic information for each person:  birth, marriage, death, children, with good sources.  I don't always go back to get into details for every person. When I can I add a photo.

I'm really enjoying myself.

Because I have a bad habit of trying to do more than I possible can, I've worked out somewhat of a routine where I rotate what I do so I get a little bit done on each of those projects over time.  That also works because I get stuck on one thing and can't move ahead to I switch to something else.

In the past couple of weeks, I've been working on the Wormuth and Beismer One Name Studies.

I just posted a report on the Beismer One Name Study on its blog.  Each of the ONSs have their own blog where the details of what I've been doing and what I'm finding will be posted.  Take a look.
