A Step Often Missed
Posted on July 30th, 2009 by Margie Schwieterman
You have made a great start. All of the names and dates are neatly written on the charts. You have talked with your elders. Now what?
There is an important step that can easily be missed. Take a step back…figuratively, of course, and look at what you have. Analyze what you see. Is one family better represented than another? Are there names missing that you can easily get? Do you have cousins who may have the answers to questions?
After you have thought this through, it is time to make your list of questions. Decide what you REALLY want to know and plan how you are going to proceed. Believe it or not this step will save you time in the long run. Just follow the list!
More to follow……
my heart breaks from hearing all about this. i pray that we can somehow touch peoples lives through this because God made men equal. people need to abide by that. God can do anything, but he can also help us abolish slavery once and for all.
i think we all need to find where and who we came from to better who we are and where we are going!
