Here's one about my thief of a 7th-great-grandma, Mary Passmore, who was married to my thief of a 7th-great grandpa John Dunnick! Family pattern of thieving :) #52Ancestors #genealogy #ancestry #familyhistory #OldBailey

Last couple of weeks on #52Ancestors are A Brick Wall Revisited and Unexpected.
The first is the identity of my 3x Great Grandfather that is my big brick wall. We have a potential name but due to their position in society and limited offspring there are not many DNA matches likely.
Unexpected DNA match is unexpected: Unexpected DNA match is unexpected: allroadhaverhill.blogspot.com/2026/04/52-a... #52Ancestors #genealogy #52Ancestors

Here's the crazy story of the employer my 3x g-gma's brother lived with in Philly in the 1870s. He was even buried in their family plot. This saga involves multiple marriages, bigamy, mediums, and seances. #genealogy #familyhistory #52Ancestors #ancestry

With my Great x4 Grandfather, Samuel Nelson, I've finally caught up in this year's #52Ancestors Challenge. It was pretty easy when the information you have primarily looks like this. #Genealogy #FamilyHistory #BrickWall

In my latest #52Ancestors Challenge post, meet another of my seventh generation Irish ancestors, Martha Burns. She might be connected, she might not. Did she even exist? #genealogy #FamilyHistory
All in all, I’d like one less brick in the wall. 🎶

It's easy to catch up with the #52Ancestors Challenge when you have next to no information to work with. This week I share what little I know about my Great x4 Grandmother, Martha Carr. #Genealogy #FamilyHistory #BrickWall

Doing genealogy, you can't choose your ancestors. You have to take the crunchy with the smooth. For this week's #52Ancestors Challenge, I take a look at my Great x4 Grandfather, Daniel Thomas - churchman and slave owner. #genealogy #FamilyHistory

Advancing slowly forward with this year's #52Ancestors Challenge, I seem to have a lot to say about my Gx4 Grandmother, Nancy Ann Morehead, without having a lot of quality sources to consider. #Genealogy #FamilyHistory

As slipping behind again on #52Ancestors going to tritely cover three weeks in one post and take things more literal than implied. Prompts of A Turning Point, An Address with a Story and A Family Pattern can sort of all be covered by the one street.
A lot of people are talking about their childhood homes this week. When in Rome: allroadhaverhill.blogspot.com/2026/03/52-a... #genealogy #52Ancestors

Week 11 #52Ancestors: a turning point - one of my 6x ggrandfathers, Eleazer Jordan, who fought at the Battle of Bunker Hill, was taken prisoner by Native Americans/Canadians at the Cedars, and was discharged at Ticonderoga.

This coming week's #52Ancestors prompt is A Turning Point and for a start struggled to think but then a thought popped in.
Might be silly but a turning point for me was when I realised that my ability to learn had not escaped me but just how much pedigree collapse was in my family.
This is about finding out my 100% Polish mother's family is not 100% Polish. bonniegenealogy.blog/2026/03/09/2... #52Ancestors #genealogy #ancestry #familyhistory
#Genealogy #52Ancestors Paying attention to handwritten notes in a printed genealogy added credibility, because I recognized the handwriting. These valuable updates were made by people who actually knew the ancestors. #FamilyHistory climbingmyfamilytree.blogspot.com/2026/03/payi...
I'm up to Week 5 of the #52Ancestors Challenge 2026! At this pace, I'll be done by 2028.😆
I'm now on my Great x4 Grandparents on my mother’s paternal line - the Mormon branch of my family - starting with Rachel Franklin. #Genealogy #FamilyHistory

Week 9 of #52Ancestors is about conflicting clues. My 4x-great-grandfather Danforth Tombs' obituary names a brother... but I think it's really his nephew. bonniegenealogy.blog/2026/03/04/2... #genealogy #ancestry #familyhistory
