Dear Ede,
Everything all O.K.
Eva started to eat 
to-day appetite good
and pains growing
less every day.
Lyle

  1. Really enjoy reading the stuff on your blog, You should definitely consider genetic genealogy as well. They use your genes to definitively identify your ancestors. Here's a fantastic website that reviews all the kits available in the market- https://www.dnatestreview.org/. I also recently read that testing at more than one company, gives a range of results and help to construct a comprehensive genealogical report. Cheers!

    1. I have tested at several companies, as have multiple family members. I am fascinated with genetic genealogy and have learned a lot. Thanks for the comment.
