Praising Our Ancestors


Let us now sing the praises of ... our ancestors.

Making Everyday Sacred


We can all create sacred books and boxes -- a volume of dreams, a heart-felt diary, a notebook of thoughts, a particularly meaningful album of photographs [a family history or a genealogy] -- and thus in a small but significant way can make the everyday sacred.

David Bonar Descendants

I posted a report about David Bonar and his descendants to my "secret" Henthorn Group on Facebook.  I haven't been able to obtain the name of his wife yet.  The information in the report would be of interest to folks working on: Bonar, Mason, or Yoho.

What's a "secret" group on Facebook?  It's a group where membership is by invitation only. This allows me to control who has access to the work I'm willing to share. Members can see and download any reports I share in the File area of the Group.  If members are so inclined, they can also share their own work either in posts or to the File area.

I like using this method to share because it's quick and easy for me and because I don't need to remember Email addresses and I know who has access to my work.
