Now that I’m back on the right track, I’m 59% working on the Newspapers.com obituaries related to Conneautville. Tip: Setting Up Alerts on Newspapers.com I setup […]

Day 2 to “Writing More in 2022.” Still 49% through the Conneautville-related obituaries on Newspapers.com. But just 4 obituaries away from reaching the halfway point.

One of my goals for 2022 is to write more. I’m going to start by making daily updates on my genealogy research. The big project I’ve been working on for several months is a Place Study for Conneautville, Crawford County, Pennsylvania. I began the process by searching on Ancestry.com and FamilySearch.org. I then added any […]
