A lotta changes goin’ on ’round here (a quick newsletter for 2026)

I’m back to Wednesday blog posts: and I mean it! No excuses.

This website is really old, and never has reached its full potential. It’s in desperate need of updating; so here’s what’s up:

January 2026: Thanks to Super-flu 2025, this newsletter, which should have posted the last year, didn’t make it out on time. So STORIES FROM THE PAST is already two weeks behind and I already have some catching up to do.

Here’s what you can expect this year:

• New Theme, Logo, letterhead, and other organizational updates. (You should already see some of them.)
• About Us focusing less on beginnings and more on readers. (This keeps you involved.)
• Regular cousin updates with new profiles for Cousin Connections
• MANY new stories from the past.
• More chapters for the Second Wife’s Story.
• Research for Mary Damron’s story (untitled) and at least one more story I can’t wait to get started on.
• Austria report from 2019
• Family History Conference reviews
• Added post days
• New Social media connections

February 2026: New research on a new biography. This is near and dear to my heart. but I am quite sure that many of my existing readers and even more of my new readers will be able to find a personal connection or two along the way.

I can’t wait to tell you about it! Stay tuned; preliminary details will be released on January 28.

You will see changes every week, and I’ll be sure to keep you updated.

See you next Wednesday!
