  1. Cheri, thanks so much for the nomination! I really appreciate the good thoughts!

    As you know, I'm headed to Ireland shortly, for a three week research journey. If you don't mind, I'll be taking a rain check on responding to your post here--hopefully I'll be up and ready to pass the baton by the last week of October.

    It's been fun learning all these facts about fellow genealogy bloggers. I didn't know you are mom to eleven! And our families share an Air Force background, although not likely in the same places at the same time. Someday, we'll have to compare notes. Who knows, perhaps you and my sister in law spent time at the same base in England.
