A Forest Of Our Own

So, it's taken me two weeks of mind-bending searches both online and through various archives sent to me, but it's finally making some progress. Since 01 January, I've been putting together a family tree of everyone I can find that has some familial connection, either by marriage or blood, and the list is now at 194 names across 66 nuclear families. Yikes.

Call this my New Year's Resolution, I suppose. This is certainly a project I could spend years on, but the way I figure it is, someone has to put in the hours. Otherwise, I would have never learned such interesting facts like one of my third cousins is a three-time Olympic medallist. Isn't that something worth finding out?
