Oh goodness me, I'm jealous. I wish some of my brick walls could be breached. Can't get further back on my 3rd GGGGF. And having a problem with the Heyman/Hyman/Heiman family of Texas. Oh well, I sure am pleased to see somebody hit the genealogy jackpot.

I was doing some research in a library in Alabama some years ago. They had newspapers bound in books. The one I wanted to look at, the paper was coming off in little flakes. I had opened the cover and saw what was happening, just put it back in place on the shelf. Wonder why the library didn't conserve those old papers?

I've recently renewed my subscription to Ancestry. I also have found lots of info, but I always document what I find with official records. I've found lots and lots of errors. One has to be very careful. Just because it's there doesn't mean it's right.
