This turned into a real interesting genealogy day...maybe a major turning point in my genealogy life. Or not. We'll see.
* Read email and blogs, wrote Treasure Chest Thursday - Post 180: Pennsylvania Land Warrant for Cornelius Feather (1777-1853) and then Ancestry "Old Search" and "New Search" Comparison with Exact Matches and set it for later.
* Worked in the Pennsylvania Archives website trying to find more info about land warrants and patents. Didn't find what I wanted.
* Received interesting email from James asking for information about using Ancestry.com. Answered him. During the day, received two more emails and answered them with more information.
* Received phone call from reader about Ancestry.com, and talked to her for about 40 minutes. Interesting conversation. Checked Facebook too.
* Went in at 5 p.m. to watch TV news and football, read the paper and eat dinner. Did the dishes and watered the front plants.
* Online at 6:15 p.m. to finish up the CVGS Newsletter, then talked to James on the phone about Ancestry.com and more. Will meet him on Monday to thrash out some details.
* Worked online adding content and sources to the database. Got stuck on some thorny problems and didn't get much done.
