Today, on the 6th anniversary of the Nova Scotia mass shooting, I mourn those who were killed. I knew Constable Heidi Stevenson, who was shot and killed while trying to stop the shooter. I send love to her mom and family on this dreadful anniversary.

Is this not US? Hopefully, people won’t take it as coming from Canada if they are not familiar with the source.

Happy #TartanDay - Nova Scotia had the first provincial tartan in Canada. Blue and white are for the surf-ridden sea, greens for the forests, red for the royal lion on the Arms of Nova Scotia, and gold for the province’s historic Royal Charter.

If the obituary does not say where the person died, do not assume you know where they died. Do not assume they died in the town where the funeral home is at or where the obituary was in the newspaper. #genealogy

Stuck on a brick wall? Research their FAN Club:
• Friends
• Associates
• Neighbours
People migrated together, married into each other’s families, and witnessed each other’s documents.

Sometimes the answer isn’t in your ancestor’s record — it’s in their neighbour’s.

“Genealogy has a habit of quietly rearranging the furniture of our identity.”

That line has been sitting with me while writing my latest post.

It’s about the moments when family history challenges what we think we know about ourselves.

Sharing it very soon…..
