I just thought I'd let my readers know what I've been doing lately that has my time consumed, I've been working on my pages at WeRelate.
I have been reading Randy Seaver's series of posts about the site at Genea-musings and decided to join. I uploaded my Gedcom file a couple of days ago. I thought it would be a simple process, I was wrong. My Gedcom had some problems that my RM4 program didn't find. I had to review it and match some 200 People and Family pages that were already created by others. Then, I had to match all of the places to Places pages on the site. Finally, I matched my sources to Source pages already created.
Finally my Gedcom was uploaded and the matching and merging of duplicate pages started again, but at least I have some help from the volunteers now.
I have started adding my documents and images to the pages and I think that I will be doing that for a while, I have at least 6 GB of images I have gathered. I am planning on working on one family a day, I have 288 family pages so it should keep me busy for a while.
I am really excited about making more connections and finding new cousins. I am going to post a link on my Facebook profile so other family members can add information and images to it. I think that it is well worth the time and effort to have a site with the most accurate information and sources about our ancestors in one place.
A family history blog with genealogy links, resources, ancestors, and related topics.
Welcome to my family history blog. Finding more about my family's history is very rewarding as well as being interesting and educational.
I created this blog to share my thoughts, experiences, tips and resources in my search for my ancestors' history and maybe, help you in your research as well. I am particularly interested in the history of Upper Canada and the Loyalist period in history.
