There have been many stories I overheard the one or two summers I spent at her house. I would read books while my mom and grandmother sat around talking about growing up. I was always amazed how close they were to each other.
I know now why they shared stories about great grandmothers and brothers and sisters. It is so the next generation can feel that sense of family. It gave me a sense that I belonged to something worth remembering. I guess that is why I will leave it at that for now.genealogy is not just something that is a hobby.
It is thanks to all the stories I heard that I remembered enough details to fill in search boxes as I looked for my family tree. I got a lot done, but there are holes that need to be filled in.
