Holy Missing Relatives! It’s Family History Month already?
If you want the history of Family History Month, well, Google it (shockingly, there is no Wikipedia entry). But lots of folks are posting what they are doing to celebrate. Family Tree University is offering gobs of classes; Lisa Alzo has published her goals and I know there are more out there.
