Moving Day

No, I am not moving again. God knows I have moved enough in the last two years, going from Louisiana to North Carolina and then back to Louisiana. I did, however, recently move my genealogy files. I was a little nervous about it, but it was time. My old laptop was a four-year-old Dell Inspiron 1501.

My Paternal Grandmother in 1940

My second find in the 1940 census was my paternal grandmother, Merlene Golda MERTENA. Like my paternal grandfather, she was exactly where I thought she would be.

I decided to start a map on Google Maps to keep track of the places I've indexed so far with the 1940 census indexing project at Family Search Indexing.
