Welcome

Trying to write one's family history can be rather daunting, to say the least. Even more so when you're dyslexic and have poor gramar skills. It can be quite exasperating trying to put some simblance of order to the tons of information I've accumulated since I began this journey while living in England in 2004. Should I write a book, use Facebook, use a genealogy website or write a blog? There are so many options, but no matter which avenue(s) I choose there will always be a family member who will not be able to access portions of my collection and research. What to do, what to do? Do I do more than one? Yes. This blog will be my avenue of sharing information, and feelings, as I progress through a mirad of projects such as writing a book and updating my tree on Ancestry.com. This, I believe, will also allow for sharing of information quicker. Though they are all different in how they share information, the end goal is to be the story teller for my family. To tell the stories of generations that came before me, who still walk with me and for the generations yet to be. I welcome your comments, questions and inputs.

Margarite Rose Blish Mallette Rash (1895 -1973)

The obituary for my great grandmother. Throughout her life there were routine miss spellings of her name, making looking for her all the more difficult.  Margarite is in fact her first name. To make it even more difficult was my mom's mom refusing to talk about her first husband, Lloyd.  The break through came by a chance finding of my cousin Terry. She is related through a sister of Lloyd.  I know this to be her obit because of the names listed. Lloyd Mallette was my grandfather. I made a request for a photo of her niche at Acacia Cermetery. I hope someone will fulfill my request thrugh Find A Grave.
