February 2023 Newsletter
I hope everyone is having a great winter thus far! This year I am finally trying the 52 Ancestors in 52 Weeks challenge, put on by Amy Johnson Crow! I had always thought it would be too overwhelming, with everything on my plate already, but didn't realize all the options there are for it. I haven't been able to work much on my own family history for years now, as my time is just spread way too thin, but this gives me a way to keep up with it bit by bit! It's a great way to get you to write and share something about your ancestors, little by little! There's still time to join the challenge, if you're up for it!
Have you signed up for the largest family history event in the world yet, FREE online or for a super low, minimal, in-person charge?! There's still time to register at: RootsTech
My next FREE speaking event is coming up on February 27, in which I'll be presenting, "Who Is That Mystery DNA Match?" for the Placer County Genealogical Society. This is a FREE online event. Stay tuned on my Facebook page for the link, once it becomes available.
Stay tuned for this year's Genealogy Wish Grants announcement and application period, coming soon!
Be sure to check out my upcoming speaking events for the year, in which most are FREE; my newest blog posts, for tips and tricks, and more news; and my newest social genealogy and family history questions, latest updates, and genealogy quick tips on my Facebook Page and Group for this month! You're all invited to join!
Happy winter!
