You know you're taking genealogy too seriously if...
You are the only person to show up at the cemetery research party
with a shovel.
To put the "final touches" on your genealogical research, you've
asked all of your closest relatives to provide DNA samples.
Your house leans slightly toward the side where your genealogical
records are stored.
You decided to take a two-week break from genealogy, and the U.S.
Postal Office immediately laid off 1,500 employees.
Out of respect for your best friend's unquestioned reputation for
honesty and integrity, you are willing to turn off that noisy
surveillance camera while she reviews your 57 genealogical research
notebooks in your home. The armed security guard, however, will
remain.
You plod merrily along "refining" your recently published family
history, blissfully unaware that the number of errata pages now far
exceeds the number of pages in your original publication.
During an ice storm and power outage, you ignore the pleas of your
shivering spouse and place your last quilt around that 1886
photograph of dear Uncle George.
The most recent document in your "Missing Ancestors" file is a
36 page contract between you and Johnson Billboard Advertising Company.
Ed McMahon, several t.v. cameras and an envelope from Publishers
Clearing House arrive at your front door on Super Bowl Sunday, and
the first thing you say is, "Are you related to the McMahons of Ohio?"
"A Loving Family" and "Financial Security" have moved up to second and
third, respectively, on your list of life's goals, but
Hi List:
My 5th grandfather back, was Mathias CHRISMAN.
He married Elizabeth/Elisbeth GROSS. (?where was she born & when?).
I found something that stated that Elizabeth was the daughter of
Johann GROSS d) 1804. Where was Johann GROSS born?
My line starts with Mathias, then:
Jacob, John, Hiram, and Elmer.
Does anyone have documentation on any of the above?
Any help on this line will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Barbara
Do you have any information on Keziah STEPHENS who married Abraham CHRISMAN?
They were married in 1759 in VA. Keziah was born in 1737 in VA, and was a
daughter of Peter STEPHENS, Sr. Who does Abraham belong to? Does someone have
a ged.com that you could send me? Thanks.
Ima J. Stephens
