My Genealogy Monday - 29 June 2015

This was almost an all genealogy day...even got some tasks accomplished.  And had a significant computer problem.

*  Linda said that she couldn't get her email to open - well, the files are gone for some reason.  No clue.

*  Read email and blogs )mine worked fine), and noted that Amanuensis Monday - Post 274: Will of John Bigelow (1617-1703) of Watertown, Mass.posted.  

*  Joined Mondays With Myrt and talked about cousin Barbara and the DNA Match trees in the first half hour.

*  Worked on the presentation, and got it almost finished.  Need to edit it, practice it, and make the handout.  Nothing like just in time (11 days!).

*  Noted that New or Updated Record Collections at FamilySearch.org - June 21 to 27, 2015 posted, and wrote NEHGS Salutes the Nation’s Anniversary with FREE Access to the Great Migration Databases on AmericanAncestors.org.

*  Worked on the DNA Match trees, answered email, and added to the Best Of post.

*  Wrote It's Always the Last Place You Look!  

*  We left at 5:30 p.m. for Lolita's for dinner, then Coldstone for dessert, home by 7 p.m.

*  Spent almost two hours trying to understand the problem with Linda's email and files.  The files are gone.  Tried to take the system back but that failed (probably had anti-virus on).  Backed up some of my files.  Ranted on Facebook.  Frustrated.

*  Worked on Ancestry Hints, cleared 72 of them adding content and sources to the database.

*  Checked Facebook, added to the Best Of post, answered email and wrote this post.  Genealogy today was 9.5 hours.
