Hello!
Greetings people!!
Well, it has been a couple of productive genealogy days, found out so much stuff about my ancestors. I got new documents, pictures and slowly but surely my tree is coming together and, somehow, an homage to my mother’s brilliant
recollection skills is coming about….Yup, she was a very bright woman my mom and her anecdotes of her past are being dug up slowly but surely by yours truly, confirming them is just the cherry on top of the Sundae.I could tell you facts but what do you care about them, it has become a very private matter to me and no one without exception is being let into my new discoveries. I know I know, “What am I doing it for then?” I guess it all has to do with my passion for digging old stuff up. I once planned to be an archeologist but destiny had other plans...cliché statement but true, I feel that one day someone is going to ask me about my life and I will be more than ready to answer them…I admit every time that I find a document related to a relative my brain recalls the proper anecdote associated with it as told by my mom. Like for example, in one of her stories of her past, my mother told me that she took care of our oldest cousins while their mother traveled intensely the globe. Guess what? I found the paper trail associated with this moment in time.
Kudos to her! Mind you some stories were embellished a tad, makes me think of of a great poet who once hid a city in one of his writings...
Take care folks…
PS Can’t wait for my DNA results to come in...I’m still betting on the “extraterrestrial “ gene to show up. One of my bros looks strangely like a sister of my mom…..I smell potential dramaaa!
