I never thought I would still be blogging when i started it in 2010. Being discovered by distant cousins was Such a boost, with new stories to tell and new photographs to share, and the support of the blogging company has been a great boon. My family is supportive, but not greatly interested, and my brick wall is still standing. But I would not be without my blog., and have no intention of stopping yet.ScotSuehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01412874349376253984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3533717770805440813.post-66383721615797730392016-03-15T22:31:59.316-07:002016-03-15T22:31:59.316-07:00Great post!

I love reviewing what I have found and how I found things in the past. As for cousin baiting, my online tree has kept me pretty busy.

Thanks for sharing this list. I ca...Hi, Heather. <br />Thanks for sharing this list. I can relate to writing a book a little at a time. Because blog posts tend to be short, I'm forced to write concisely. I generally know the most important parts of a post by the time I've edited it. That means I could also add more interesting details (in the event that I weave the post into a book). <br /><br />On a different note, I love it when descendants send me photos! I've been researching, speaking and writing about Confederates from Iowa (that is, men who left Iowa and served the Confederacy). So far, I've documented 75 such men. Some of their descendants have enriched my research. My blog is called Confederates from Iowa: Not to defend, but to understand.
