Thank you for expressing this “common” tr...James,<br /><br />Thank you for expressing this “common” trait that seems to appear daily in the present<br />generation of family name gatherers. I have been referred to as a dinosaur in many ways when it<br />comes to the computer, web, and research yet I also believe the early training [forty years ago]<br />when paper and pencil was the basic form of recording is still needed. And the suggestions,<br />which perhaps are not heard or stated as often, that we begin with what we find at home and talk<br />with each generation backward that we still can remain the cornerstone of our research. Perhaps<br />folks today do not even know what a cornerstone is so it is not a surprise their family research<br />would not be set on a firm foundation. Keep sharing the view that not all we learned in the past<br />was only good in the past, but even the “experts” with the mouse need to know how to spell<br />mom and dad, not just click their way to a family tree.<br /><br />IrishFrogIrishFrognoreply@blogger.com
