Slightly crazy writer and passionate educator for those who struggle
Updating the family tree
My mother was a legend
She did not get distracted
She researched all the families
And created the family tree.
When she was sick and dying
She got a promise from thee
To keep on researching
The rather large family tree,
Some years have past
And time has wasted
No researching have I done
However some elder branches
Have fallen off the family tree
My aim right now is updating
The deaths, births and weddings
So at least when I start researching
I’ll have an updated family tree.

I’m the one in our family who undertook the research (after both Mom and Dad had passed); there were a lot of “secrets” no one talked about, so its been a challenge but I’m enjoying it. The only “downside” is getting sucked in and losing track of the time! Good luck (at least you had a starting point!)

You really do get involved and forget about time. I am lucky I have a couple of people from both sides of the family that can teach me what to do.
