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.

Contacts Are A Blessing

Where would I be without my contacts? Contacts are essential in my experience, I don't know where I'd be in my research without them. they expand your vision worldwide. I'm not talking about the kind you wear, but they do improve your vision. If they come across something of interest to you they don't hesitate to share it.

Genealogy contacts are a blessing! I would not have many of my ancestors' photos without them. It would have taken a while longer to find out that I was searching for wrong surnames, wrong locations, wrong parents etc. I may never have discovered my loyalist ancestry.

The only thing better than Genealogy contacts is finding out that they are members of your family!

  1. Ah so true. I know I'd be a lot less informed were it not for the generosity of long distance relatives.

    So glad you are posting again. I joined your site last spring because it looked like we had similar genealogical pursuits.
