#Ancestral_Women 31-Day Challenge suggested by Robin Stewart @genstack.bsky.social
Day 31, LILIAN HELEN ALEXANDER 1861-1934, my third cousin four times removed. I wrote about her in my online research journal at anneyoungau.wordpress.com/2018/04/13/l...

Again thanks @genstack.bsky.social for the 31-day female ancestor challenge. I have work to do.
On FamilySearch, the parents married abt 1853, but they are married on the 1850 census. On FS their son was born in 1854 which matches the gravestone, but early census records put his birth abt 1851.

Look out for a brand new #Blog tomorrow called ‘Touching The Past’ exploring how the history that surrounds us connects us to the past
“history is about people. It’s about how and where they lived, the challenges they faced, the triumphs they celebrated, and the legacies they left behind.”
Looking forward to it! Thanks Lynda!

Digging into my family history, I always note how much my ancestors lives were shaped by the world around them—wars, migrations, struggles, & triumphs. Family history is *history.* It’s wild to see where we come from!
What’s the most surprising thing you’ve learned about your ancestors? #Genealogy
Thanks for the boost, my @photogenealogy.bsky.social. I confess that this has been a bucket list item for me since well before the days of Ponga. 🥹
Oh yeah, and in there, I mention my #Lafayette project in progress. 🇫🇷 Here's the link:

Rather thankful I didn't have to keep up with the 1905 spring fashions. Must-haves: New Bridge Coat -assuming one has an old one- & a Directoire Coat. Unless the Directoire ushered the Haves from dinner table to bridge table, doubt I would have needed one. Kansas City Journal, April 7, 1905.
Turning genealogy into a story brings ancestors to life—beyond names & dates, into struggles, triumphs, and secrets. Creative nonfiction makes history personal. Do you write (or want to write) about your family’s past? Let’s talk research, storytelling & truth! #Genealogy #Writing

West Side Cave Park: Evansville's Notorious 1888 Hotspot. Part 1/2. Using the new video function on Substack to import some of the videos I did for TikTok over the last two years. Not ideal, but there it is.
