Saving the Squalus

Posted on May 8, 2015May 21, 2015 By Danni 2 Comments on Saving the Squalus

In May 2014 the spousal unit and I paid a visit to the Iowa kin en route from Nebraska back home.  I was working a conference in Nebraska and it was a great opportunity to stop in, see family, and talk some genealogy.  They were gracious enough to let me photograph and scan some items in…

Your Results Are In!

Posted on August 15, 2014May 21, 2015 By Danni

I don’t know if I’ve received a more exciting email. Short, sweet and to the point, that email means my AncestryDNA results that are ready for viewing!! That was so much faster than I expected and now I can’t wait to view them. Sadly I’m not sure I’ll have time to view them right away…
