One year ago today, I attended a class on creating a blog at the California Genealogical Society. It was taught by Craig Siulinski. I was unsure at first. What could I write about that anyone would want to read? At the time, I thought I would write about my research as it pertained to my grandmother, Mam-ma's ancestors. I have done that. In the past year, I have created 22 posts. Some are strictly photos for "Wordless Wednesday." Most of the blogs have met a blogging meme.
This next year, I hope to write more. My grandmother is 98 years young and I hope to glean as much as I can from her life while I still can. She's pretty sharp. I find using photos as a good starting point for story-telling. My goal is to get a good time-line of her life. Wish me luck!

This blog will focus on the life and ancestors of my grandmother, Pansy "Joni" Louise Lancaster as I research her families. Additional ancestral surnames include: Allen, Coor, Cox, Ellis, Hughes, Kethley, Lancaster, Loveless, Martin, Medlock, Neel, Nixon, Perry, Polly, Porter, Ro(d)gers, Singleton, Walker, Welch, Whitfield, Wilkins, & Young.
Hey, Lisa, congratulations on your first blogiversary! How great that Craig taught the CGS workshop and now you and Janice (and others?) share the anniversary date. I love following all of you and watching the members' blog roll grow.
