I took Jan Joyce's Document Workshop and got a lot out of it—great prep before going on the clock. She’s holding another this September: learn, prepare, and practice the BCG Doc Work element. Includes 2025 requirements, examples, instruction, daily practice.

In other news, I'm presenting my first (of two) talks today - this one is on the Irish Census.
Check it out at 3pm Irish Time [10am EST] here: www.familysearch.org/en/rootstech...
#Genealogy #RootsTech
Day 1 #RootsTech Excited for #Genealogy learning! Let’s remember to welcome our International friends, especially our near neighbors north and south of the border. Some feel unwelcome because of the current administrations threats. Let them know you care!
Go to bed. You’re drunk.
We’ve had a better season this year than the western states. It doesn’t always happen but when it does we don’t take it for granted. However, we also never take for granted our democracy.
I’ll need to fill you in on all the tea that the lifties spilled. You’ll be at RootsTech right?
My dude. Vermonters are not rich. This is a Jerry insult. Spring skiing is universal. Google is your friend.
Sounds like someone else we know. 🍑🤡
I captured the scene on the mountain. And guess what? Vance had a yardsale on Jester! 😀😀😀
Here's another one I took today! Serious Vermonter burn.
What? I don’t know them and have only eaten downstairs. Makes sense if it was “cover.” I couldn’t imagine the secret service allowing it.
No. I can’t believe they thought that was a good idea at all! But no they aren’t staying there.
I’m not. The other poster is. But I have heard from people who work on the mountain that it’s probably correct. I can’t verify that, though.
That’s Waitsfield.
Less snark and more of a positive appeal. You’re right of course. I’m just so angry.
Have you found any bc for him?
It depends on when Ontario began official registrations. He may have a delayed birth certificate. I’ll look tomorrow after I’m back from the protest here in Vermont against JD Vance.
You’re the best. The Berchtesgaden one is a favorite with our crowd. But! Vance schooling Zelenskyy on not thanking Trump? Give me something to smack that shitty oligarch attitude down.
Oh but that first one is brilliant. Not sure I’ll use it but oof.
Oops. Birth records! Tricky in this period!
I don’t think I’m super smart but I’m intimately aware of all the Nova Scotia censuses. Let me know if I can help!
I’m here in Vermont. I’m going to a protest tomorrow to tell Vance he’s a fucking tool. Please give me good signage content. Many folks who work at the mountain think they might be fired tomorrow if they don’t comply with directives. Send them some love. #SugarbushSkiandRide #lifties #fuckyouvance.
When I was a kid, I would check out graveyards when we were on vacation (I know I'm not the only one here!) I was drawn to the children's graves and noticed when a bunch died around the same time. It felt incredibly sad to me then, and it still does. :(

We're excited to announce our Spring 2025 study groups! Registration opens this weekend. See below for details! #genealogy #MasteringProofStandards #methodology #documentation #analysis #GPS
This is a deliberate insult to historians. Trump’s furious at being excluded from an elite club he imagines exists. In reality, it’s just a research library. He looks like a petulant child craving attention. That’s just sad. www.cbsnews.com/boston/news/...
Telling Our Stories: The Power of Documenting Family History

It’s never a good idea to piss off the genealogy community. Every state has multiple historical societies. We have professional orgs. We work on family history and in the forensic fields. Probate, mineral rights, duel citizenship, investigative genetic genealogy, military repatriation and more.
