Genealogy research has yielded many memorable moments over the years
Why the bug bit me is unknown. Some say that one great-grandmother had an inkling for it, so maybe I got more of her DNA. As I reflect on some of the highlights, great discoveries — especially the accidental ones, as well as the low points of my research — I thought it might be fun to share. Remembering similar things in your research journey might cause some of your kin to understand your passion.
The family tree to me is like a crossword puzzle — blanks to be filled in, but unending. I remember reading a work of L.G. Pine on my flight to England in 1971 while in the U. S. Air Force. I was amazed at his emphasis on the thousands of ancestors we had after 20 generations. One great discovery was on my first visit to the Georgia Archives, then located in Rhodes Hall, when I found the only surviving record of the 1806 marriage of my ancestors William Snellings and Elizabeth Pickard, recorded before the marriage volume disintegrated in Warren County.
