I was curious about Elsa (daughter of Elsie & Leo Pondelick), the informant on my Gram's DC. Here is Elsie's 1940 #repatriation doc. But wasn't she born in the USA? Yes! But she lost her #citizenship in 1916 when she married Leo, an #immigrant who became a citizen in [checks notes] 1924. #Genealogy

My son is part of an honors college project at his university. I assumed he was on a tech committee & was shocked when he excitedly told me, "I'm on the newspaper committee. We're looking through historic newspapers!" Newspapers with the university archivist? You are #LivingTheDream ! #Genealogy

My mom passed away one year ago today, and this morning has a surreal feeling to it as I recall that final day. One year has passed, and it is still difficult to find the right words. #Genealogy #Hospice #Grief

There are so many stories to tell about my amazing mother, and someday, I intend to tell those stories to honor her memory. Today, though, I just don’t have the words.

My parents always told me that voting was private, and they never discussed their voting choices. Looking at pics of our house ca. 1980, though, there were definite signs of how they voted. We were the 2nd family in the neighborhood with #solar hot water. Rest in peace, #JimmyCarter.
