Genea-Journal - 12 and 13 January 2019

The weekend was not much of a genealogy research weekend due to the SDGS seminar on Saturday and football on Sunday.

1)  Saturday, 12 January:

*  Read email and blogs, then left at 8 a.m. for Mission Bay and the SDGS seminar with Curt Witcher.

*  Got there by 8:30 a.m., and had a few minutes with Curt as they had video problems.  Also talked to Debbie, Cindy, Ann, Myrna, Shirley, Ray and Marshall plus others.  Stayed through the 1 p.m. presentation but sleepy so came home by 2 p.m.

*  Watched football, dozed in the recliner, ate dinner, read the paper, and washed dishes.

*  Online at 8 p.m. to note that Surname Saturday -- NEWCOMB (England to colonial Massachusetts)Saturday Night Genealogy Fun -- Where Were They 150 Years Ago? and Added or Updated Record Collections at FamilySearch.org - Week of 6 to 12 January 2019 posted.  

*  Checked Facebook, added to the best Of post and answered email.  Genealogy this day was 6.5 hours.

2)  Sunday, 13 January:

*  Read email and blogs before football, stayed home from church to watch the Chargers/Patriots game.  One team got outcoached and outplayed.  Chargers lost 41-28 but it was 38-7 at one point.  Terrible game.  

* Online finally at 1:30 p.m. to transcribe the deed and write the Amanuensis Monday post.

*  Went back in at 3:30 p.m. to watch football, then news, ate dinner, and washed dishes.

*  Online at 6 p.m. to read, answer email, add to the Best Of post, noted that Best of the Genea-Blogs - 6 to 12 January 2019 posted, and wrote Using GeneticAffairs.com to Create DNA Match AutoClusters - Part I.  

*  Resolved about 200 Ancestry Hints, adding content and sources to the RootsMagic family tree.  Lots more to do!  

*  Checked Facebook, wrote this post, and answered email.  Genealogy this day was 6.0 hours.
