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.

Cullimore Family Bible & Contents - Before Repairs

I have been taking "before" pictures of the Cullimore Family Bible before sending it off to Indiana (http://www.leonardsbooks.com/) for repair. Copies will also be added to my Ancestry.com tree. Many people would leave such a book as it is but as I upload photos before sending it off I believe you will agree that having it repaired will further add to the life and enjoyment of the Bible for generations yet to be. More to come on one of the most amazing books I've had the pleasure to have, my heartfelt thanks to my Aunt Mary. Words cannot express how thankful I am to have it passed on to me. Hugs!
