Zooming along....

Post by MarkCDodd »

Amazing how I can get periods of insane productivity.

I have been struggling for months to get dribs and drabs on the tree done and today its been manic.

I have been trying to sort out our Prof. Woods Shropshire family and have found a mistake in over 40 odd trees.

So I am correcting it on Ancestry with copies of the Parish Registers for dozens of Baptisms, Marriages, Banns and Burials and hope that at least some will correct their trees.

Usual problem when two brothers marry two sisters and have lots of children with similar names in the same town.

Made worse by how common the Wood surname is around that part of Shropshire and its all pre 1837.
Black Holes happen when God divides by zero.

A person should have an opinion on everything, It becomes tact whether you reveal that opinion or not.
