Well, here it is--the Cedar Hollow 7th Ward Family History blog. Hopefully, it will become the ward clearinghouse for information about working on Family History.
Post and comment about:
- Links to family history internet sites.
- Questions and answers about family history research.
- Anything else family history related.
In order to post to this blog, I will need to add you to the "poster" list. Send me an e-mail at phwelton@gmail.com. I'll send you an invitation to join the blog. The e-mail will have instructions on how become a poster and how to setup a Google account (required to be a poster) if you don't have one.
Questions? Contact Paul Welton
