Ancestory.Com

I am not having much luck on that site. It is free for the 1st through the 15th, but as far as I can tell, it is only the census records...I did get some stuff done on the big screen, I guess I could have done even when it wasnt free. Entering the things that I have found out so far, on an actual computer is nicer, I think, since I have most of the things saved here in my big computer, along with pictures that I can upload into the family ftree I am making.

I have pictures of some people on my Gramma Bishop (McCarty)'s side. They are the Parkers, so that would be...my Gramma Inez's grandmother, so, my great great grandmother, and her side. That is where, from what my Dad told me, we are related to Billy The Kid. But then again, who is NOT related to Billy The Kid, from what someone father along thier family line tells them!

Bottom line, and not to make excuses, but I have no new information to post today...

I worked on the cards a bit more, and this weekend, weather permitting, I plan to make the questionaire to send to my Gramma for her and my Aunt Robbie to go over, along with an envelope to return it all... It would be so cool to get that info from them. Maybe I will try to go for Spring Break again, so that I can do the video tape thing I mentioned. When my "aunt" Diane told the story of how they did it at her mother's house, it was really touching. Maybe I will ask my mom to take a packet to her Mother as well, when she goes to see her next week. I am pretty sure that Granny Bush has given me all she has, so that might be a dead end?

Anyhow, that is all for now.
