I have always been the family genealogist.
I spent much time researching family history
and have all of my lines back at least to the jump across the ocean!
And that is into the 1600's on my paternal side.
That's usually where things get tough.
Some lines I have way back...
like into the 13th century,
thanks to a Mayflower passenger.
(Those people have been extensively researched by professionals.)
Recently, I was contacted by a fellow researcher
and by sharing info we opened many new doors...
including this church door!
This church, St. Martin's Church,
in Castleton, Lancashire, England
is where my newly discovered
maternal great, great grandparents were married.
I can't wait to see what records from here reveal.
(Not my photo)
It is so exciting!
So I don't have any new photos today,
I have been spending time researching the archives.
Next week I will be tromping through cemeteries in Philadelphia.
