My Genealogy Friday - 31 January 2014

This was a busy genealogy day at home, and I got a lot done to prepare for the trip next week.  We finally got a bit of rain last night!  First since 19 December - 43 days.

*  Read email and blogs, wrote 52 Ancestors Friday: Thomas Richman/Richmond (1848-1917) and next week's post also.  Wrote MyHeritage Will Demonstrate Latest Features At RootsTech 2014.

*  Got the laptop up and running and made sure that the RootsTech fields were in Dropbox.  added them to the laptop files also.  Loaded the latest RootsMagic database also and found most of the media items.

*  Reviewed last year's To-Do list, and made a new one after updating the items.  Searched on the FSLC for more film numbers and book numbers.  Wrote Preparing for my Visit to the FamilySearch Library.

*  Answered email, and checked Facebook.  Gave the Seaver entries from the Leominster and Fitchburg directories their file names, and downloaded more - the ones I missed.  Have over 40 between 1883 and 1943.  Need to list them in a table.

*  Went in at 5:30 p.m. to watch TV, read the paper and eat dinner.  

*  Online at 6:45 p.m. to read, check email, add to the Best Of post, and wrote two Surname Saturday posts.  Worked in the database - got through the "Fa" persons finding more content and sources.  

*  Added some records and images to the database as media.  Checked Facebook, and wrote this post.  Genealogy today was 12.0 hours.
