As I'm documenting my discoveries, I remind myself to give credit to the sources that I find. I have been proof reading what I come across. And I've noticed that there are a number of searchers who have been attaching or taking what I have as their own find. We should clarify where our sources comes from.
I see that people have added tombstones to some of my family connections on Find A Grave. I'm thankful for that and their teamwork. I haven't found new DNA connections that I know to attach to a branch. I noticed that many people don't have a full family tree and have private accounts.
Favorite Discovery: Blakey WHITE Family #52Ancestors 52 Weeks
During the Summer of 2008, I was searching for information on my Great Grandfather, Isaac Blakey on ancestry.com. I had no luck, locating him on the 1870 and 1880 censuses. Then, I had a thought to type in Isaac White. I searched and searched. Then one day, I came to some discovery that I didn’t expect.
It was on June 28, 2008, I made the discovered that my Great Grandmother, Julia (Finney) White was on the 1880 census. Something on the inside of me jumped for joy
when I saw her name on my computer screen. I said out loud, “Thank You, Jesus!”
