Sorry, there are no contributions as yet.

Finally, here after three years of talking about it: Chasing Lydia.com. My friends would be happy that they don't have to hear the someday plans anymore but now they are inundated with endless requests to "just take a quick look around the site and tell me if you see any problems". Not much of an improvement.

So far I have the bare bones up and will continue to feverishly add to the site over the next few weeks. The next things to go up should be articles on Fort Collins, Colorado history and Scottish OPR finding aids for SCOTTs of Perthshire, Scotland.

Oh yeah, and I still have to fill out the About Us and Navigation pages... sigh.

After years of saying someday... I finally managed to get some of the fruits of my genealogy research web-ready. No small task as I'm sure you can imagine. In my years of research I have accumulated literally thousands of headstone photos, family photos, obituaries and news articles which will slowly make their way onto this site. Within a few months, the first family line should be up thanks to a wonderful web database called The Next Generation of Genealogy Site Building by Darrin Lythgoe.

My vision for this site was that it would appeal to historians, genealogists and anyone interested in preserving the past not just people who share my family lines. As a result, you will find many articles and photographs which have purely historical interest and how-to's for preservation as well as genealogy.

So go prowl the site and have fun! Be sure to check out Fascinating Flotsam - that's where all the history articles are. Pat W.
