When updating profiles on online shared family trees such as on FamilySearch & @wikitree.bsky.social, please make sure you aren't mixing up people. Most names aren't actually unique. I just spent 30 min. reverting changes made to my 5th great-grandfather's profile on FamilySearch. Sigh. #genealogy

Bought my first Estonian lit as ancestor von Maydell is a composite character in book 2&3. In a set of DNA matches, he is the only common possibility in the Venn. The book is written premises that Estonian nobility was native but other sources indicate that he married a von Wrangel.

Historical fiction books by Thea Beckman, a Dutch author, sparked my interest in history. One of her books mentioned Eleanor of Aquitaine during the crusades, in a minor role. She fascinated me. 40 years later, I am now just one generation removed from proving my descent from her.
