Sometimes these ancestors tap me on the shoulder and tell me to look in a new website for their information.  Lately, I have been using http://www.ancestry.com/ almost every day in my research.  There is a fee to use that site, however, it is well worth it if you plan to do much researching.  They have census records, military records, birth, death and marriage records and much more.  I have put my family tree on their site as well as others so we can coordinate our family lines.  Another good site is http://www.familysearch.org/.  This site will be changing their name soon to familytree.org.  For a list of almost all websites that  pertain to family history research, see: http://www.cyndislist.com/.

Time to blog

A friend told me about a webinar at http://legacyfamilytreemaker/webinars.asp about getting the most out of "Google" presented by Thomas MacEntee, webhost of http://www.geneabloggers.com/ After listening to it, I am so enthusiastic about signing up for several google accounts. There are so many things you can do with Google not excluding genealogy, of course. This webinar is available to listen to until Feb. 5th, 2011 but after that you may purchase the cd. I highly recommend it. Larry and I are Winter Vistors in Yuma, AZ so I plan to get lots of time in on family history. It is difficult when the days are pretty as there are so many activities here outdoors. My love for family will never fade, however and I will never be bored as long as I can read and type.

This is the tombstone of our Great Grandfather, Wiley P. Wright, buried in Oak Grove Cemetery, east of Stilwell, Oklahoma. No birth or death date. Census records show he was born in North Carolina. He later lived in Haywood County, Tennessee, then wound up in Arkansas/Oklahoma. His wife, Lavinia (Louann, Lovey, Annie,L.A.) died in Texas.
Please see the rest of my blog for more information on her.

If you have any further information on the Wrights, please post it.
