Today I have actually tried to do more research than work on my goals for the Genea-Blogger Group Games. I did write one post that I scheduled to be posted at another time (part of Write! Write! Write!). The research I was doing today consisted of gathering information so I could write a thorough biography on one of my ancestors. I will either be writing about my maternal grandfather, Col. Glen R. Johnson, or my paternal great-grandfather, James Emory House. Both of them were military veterans. Grandad (Glen) served from WWI through the Korean War and James was a Civil War infantryman. Since writing about my grandfather would be much easier because he lived until I was in my 20s and I knew him personally, it may challenge me to write about a man I didn’t know and don’t have much information about except for what my dad and aunt have told me.
So stay tuned to see what decision I’ve made.
