The last few years have been rough, caregiving for a sick loved one.  I hope to do a better job at blog posting this year.  I am thrilled to have two genealogy research clients this year and look forward to diving deeper into their family histories.  I have recently returned to my duties as Social Media Chair for the North San Diego County Genealogical Society (NSDCGS).
