A Genealogy Christmas Gift!
This Christmas I received one of the best gifts a genealogist could get–a membership to Ancestry.com for a year. Thank you, Tony! In the past, I have saved my Ancestry research questions for occasional trips to the public library with the laptop to use their subscription. Because I had no printer for the laptop, I had to save all the images I wanted and then take time later to retrieve and print them at home. A cumbersome procedure at best. Now I can do all at once without leaving my office! The only downside I can see is that I will spend too much time next year on research and not enough on updating the database or writing articles. Still, I do love the research side of genealogy the most, so maybe it would not be so bad to give in to the temptation for 2011.
