Redirecting this Blog
I originally planned (back in 2011) to blog obituaries from Kansas Newspapers that were posted in the Wayback Machine at the Internet Archive. After researching that for a while, I only made one post so I've decided to redirect this blog to something I am more apt to continue. As I do research into my family tree I find various articles and documents that I find interesting. Some are directly related to ancestors and some are only marginally such. I find I would like to tell someone about these, but am not sure whom to tell, so maybe blogging is a reasonable outlet for this.
