Happy Blogiversary - January 15

Image
On this day, it's been exactly 5 years since I started this blog. I attended a class taught by Craig Siulinski at the California Genealogical Society. He gave us step-by-step instructions on how to set up a new blog on Blogger. There were several other students in the class who still write in their blogs, too. I had a hard time coming up with a theme for the blog and came up with writing about my maternal grandmother's family. We called her "Mam-ma." She was from Texas and her ancestors were from other southern states such as Arkansas, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina, and North Carolina. Since that time, I have written 75 blog posts. That equals to about 15 per year. It's not a lot because this blog is only about my maternal line. I started another blog where I can write about my father's side and about my husband's family. So Happy Blogiversary to Mam-ma's Southern Family! Copyright © 2016 by Lisa Suzanne Gorrell, Mam-ma's
