January 2024 Newsletter


Making Family History wishes you a Happy New Year and welcomes you to 2024! 


I've been vlogging about taking care of our ancestors & genealogists sharing this past month:

GENEALOGISTS SHARING 

It’s a pleasure to meet genealogists and understand how they have researched their family project and the sources they found to tease out needed information to complete their research.

  1. A distantly-related author chronicled an ancestor’s travels in search of a new home for religious refugees. https://youtu.be/i9qcX74OZa4

  2. Peter Michael explains who Franz Ludwig Michel, the first explorer, was. https://youtu.be/2XL26etuDHw 

  3. What does this have to do with the Wren building? https://www.amazon.com/dp/1792385730/ 

CARE OF OUR ANCESTORS

They still need you!  Until you locate your ancestor’s gravesites you may not realize that they’re screaming for attention.   


  1. A burial plot in need.  https://youtu.be/fXAmep4vqP4 

  2. This part of the cemetery was not in perpetual care. https://youtu.be/ivphvRPaRQw 

  3.  I got lost three times today!  https://youtube.com/shorts/y-hbZoQqvv4 

  4. Getting quotes to fix the plot.  https://youtu.be/IzvXX9-yKMg 


And, I finally got the answer I was waiting for, so I can wrap up the Care of Our Ancestors series in January!



Speaking of graveyards, the Unearth Your Heritage workbook helps you track which ancestors are buried where.   https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09R39Q8WQ 


In January, I will create a tutorial showing you the benefits of filling out workbooks such as Unearth Your Heritage plus the steps that I am taking while trying to break down a brick wall on my family tree.
