My Genealogy Tuesday - 30 April 2013

Four months gone in 2013, eight more months to go.  The baseball season is young, and hope springs eternal.  The NGS and SCGS conferences are looming, and our Legacy cruise in September sounds like a lot of fun.  The genealogy work is not done...but I keep pecking away at it.

*  Read email and blogs, then wrote Tombstone Tuesday - Stephen and Tabitha (Randolph) Cutter in Woodbridge, New Jersey, then wrote NGS 2013 Conference News - Syllabus is Available to Download, and set it for later.

*  Spent several hours reading the syllabus.  Lots of methodology talks by very experienced lecturers.  Should have spent some time working on my two May presentations!

*  After lunch and a mile walk, worked a bit in MyHeritage Photos and syncing and think I figured it out.  Wrote Family Tree Builder 7.0 Software Synchronization with MyHeritage Family Tree - Post 3.

*  Did 20 matches in Michigan Death Index, 1921-1952 for Seaver folks, adding content and sources.  

*  Went in at 5 p.m. to watch the Padres game, eat dinner, read the paper, and read my Lee Child book.  Pads won 13-6 over Cubs in 3.5 hours...best game of the year!  Now 10-16.

*  Online again at 8:40 p.m. to read, add to the Best Of post, and worked in NewspaperARCHIVE on MyHeritage confirming and rejecting matches.  Added several obituaries to the database notes.  

*  Checked Facebook, and wrote this post.

Genealogy today was 9.0 hours.
