I've had great intention of posting on this blog regularly now that I have more time -- but somehow, it seems that time keeps getting filled with other activities!  So, here I am, 2+ years later and giving it another shot.
Back in May I went to a genealogy conference in Grand Rapids, Michigan.  Heard some excellent lectures and discovered a few neat things.  Including access to more Michigan newspapers.  And stumbled upon this!

So, the plan is to look for more newspaper articles, as well as my usual research.
