My Genealogy Friday - 14 November 2014

It was another stay-home day for me.  We got the heater installation appointment date - 12 December.  4 more weeks without heat.  The mnth is almost half over already.

*  Read email and blogs, and noted that 52 Ancestors in 52 Weeks - Week 46: #53 Mary (Bell) Smith (1805-1865) posted.  

*  Had trouble staying connected on the AncestryDNA link call - BSOD 3 times and reboot.  Figured out it was the video link - stay away from that and everything worked fine.  Interesting discussion, more news next week.  AncestryDNA not showing me matches for some reason.

*  Wrote New or Updated Ancestry.com Databases - November 8-14, 2014.  Worked as bit in RootsMagic resolving names/dates/sources/notes with FamilySearch Family Tree.

*  Answered email, added to the Best Of post, checked Facebook, feel like a wasted an hour here. Posted Zap the Grandma Gap Book Releases - Getting Kids Hooked On Family History.  Feeling lazy!

*  Did the next 20 Hints in 1930 census, resolved 36, down to 320 left.  Facebook, email, bored.

*  Went in at 5:15 p.m. to read the paper, eat dinner, watch TV news.  Online at 6:30 p.m. to write the Surname Saturday post.  Back to the TV at 7 p.m. for the Aztecs basketball game.  At halftime, wrote the SNGF post.  Then back to watch the second half.  Aztecs won 79-64.  

*  Online at 9 p.m. to read, then tried to resolve names/events on FSFT but got errors so gave up.  Tried to find spouses names for the John Kenyon children but no luck.

*  Wrote this post.  genealogy today was 10.0 hours.
