I’ve had an account on ancestry.com for years now. And I agree with what you say. But as you probably know, the Mormons are very big on genealogy in fact next to ancestry.com their church is the next biggest website to visit for info on your ancestors. They actually have their own site similar to ancestor.com and I’m not 100% that they are not somehow affiliated with ancestry.com but that’s beside the point.
I found out that my 9th Great-grandfather was John PROCTOR who was accused of being a witch in and hung in Salem in 1692.
It IS Romney’s to lose, and he is doing the best he can.
I agree. Iran may be Obama’s target or perhaps Venezuela since that would be an easier war.
No real justification needed for Venezuela. Obama will make one up.
Bump. Have to show this to some people.
What I don’t get is why the GOP and or it’s PAC’s don’t get out in front of any potential “october surprise?” If they start the buzz(es) of what the OS will be, it can be muted. Even in passing, or speeches, etc. get it all out with off handed comments, etc to blunt it now, no? A surprise is not a surprise if everyone has talked about it recently. JM2C.
No telling what Obama may do if the polls look bad for him late Summer/ early Fall.
I hate to say but after having seen some of his recent desperate moves and abuse of power lately, a war with Iran could be the lessor of evils which the man may try to stay in power. And that scares me.
My mother and uncle have been doing all the research on their own. My great Grandfather sailed from Antwerp bound for Canada on the SS Mount Temple which had a short but eventful history on the seas. Today its at the bottom of the Atlantic full of dinosaur bones.
We’ve also found that my great grandmothers grandfather and his brother signed up to fight for the union on the same day. The brother apparently switched sides and never returned north to Wisconsin.
. My uncle is trying to find the best way to “break the news” to my liberal cousins. LOL
Spewed caffeine free Diet Coke on my keyboard, CC! LOL.
How did you find out this stuff about your family, CC?
Ancestry.com?
Through Ancestry I found that my 10th great grandfather was Gov. Bradford of the Mayflower pilgrims.
Yeah, I don’t get this comment either, Hh.
Great segway to bring my question back on topic with this article.
Perhaps THAT will be one of our October surprises!
Just in case, we should gather some others. Bookmarking this article could be an October surprise of its own if any of the predictions come true.
You'll be hearing from my lawyer in the morning. I haven't been the same since 1692. LOL
So? I am not LDS, but my grandmother was DAR, and it was she who got me into this genealogy thing.
I’ve found that ancestry.com don’t know shiite, and want you to supply the info.
My idiot brother-in-law once told me that another genealogy website, I forget its name, will do the research for free and let you know your ancestors. I told him he was crazy, but the bozo then supplied them with complete info about me and our entire family. For free. GRRRRRRH!
Anyways Gov. Bradford didn’t have anything to do with the Salem hangings so you’re off the hook.
Lots of inquiries to the INS, various state and local agencies in Detroit, Beloit Wisc, St Catherines Ontario and Buchovina Romania (which has been in Poland, Austria, The Ukraine and probably a couple other countries) . Things like ship manifests are handy. My grandfather’s sister brought a bunch of paperwork and letter when she came for the NASCAR race last week. (She’s 89 and still following the races)
LOL we all got `skeletons`, some good and some bad... An 8th great grandmother was Anne Washington, 3rd cousin of George...
My common ancestor with GW was Lawrence Washington and Aimee Partiger of Kent, England in the early 1600s
This is a good one! Bookmarked.
Also, God help me, my common ancestor with THE ONE is Mareen (Marion) DuVall of Normandy, France... Who immigrated to Maryland about 1650.
