Another week is history. It never ceases to amaze me how quickly time flies. I am writing this Thursday night and I just got back from my local genealogy society’s meeting. We had a very interesting presentation on the Chinese in El Paso. Apparently, we have the only Chinese cemetery in the state, which I thought was kind of neat. I personally don’t have any Chinese roots and I have to say that I’m kind of thankful, because that looks like some difficult research!
Here are some of my favorite finds from this past week:
1. Sepia Saturday 133 – baby elephants? at Images Past
2. Three Today at Geniaus – Happy Blogiversary!!
3. Hello, Old Blog! at Shaking Leaves: My Adventures in Genealogy
4. First Day of the Family History Expo and Day Two at the Expo at The Educated Genealogist
5. Spinster Aunts, Part One: Grace Duncan and Spinster Aunts, Part two: Ruth Esther Rockwood at Who Does She Think She Is?
6. The Moment I Knew, Linda’s Story at The Armchair Genealogist
7. Postcard from Paris, 1918 (Part 1 of 3) – Those Places Thursday at Heritage Zen
