My genealogy day - 31 July 2012

It was pretty much an all-genealogy day with some interruptions.

*  Read email and blogs, wrote Tombstone Tuesday - Geraldine Seaver Remley (1917-2007) and then United Kingdom Databases on FindMyPast.com.


*  My shower was cut short after 7 minutes because the hot water cut off for some reason.  Called the installer of the tankless heater to complain. 


*  Left at 10 a.m. for the health center for my doctor's appointment.  Stopped at the pharmacy on the way home, got home at 11:30 a.m.


*  Water heater guy came at 12:15 and said he had no clue... he called a plumber to come.  I did some experiments...have about 3 gal/minute to the kitchen sink.


*  Researched and wrote  Getting Benjamin Seaver (1791-1825) Right on FamilySearch Family Tree.


*  Worked on handout for RootsMagic workshop and answered some email.  Plumber came, read the user's manual, and said he thinks the unit is defective.  I agree - there is a 0.5 gal/minute shutoff limit - if flow falls below that, the hot water stops.  


*  Watched the Padres game, lost 7-6 to the Reds, ate dinner, washed the dishes, read the paper, watered the front plants, etc.


*  Online at 7:15 p.m. to read, add to the Best Of post, and do some Find-A-Grave work.  got through #1000 in Seavers.  Found a Seaver line in Missouri and added quite a few folks from it.


*  Checked Facebook, and wrote this post.


Genealogy today was 8.0 hours.
