In honor of Family History Month, I'd like to share a discovery I made. My grandmother wrote a letter to her paternal 1st cousin, Charlie while in Grade School.

"Dear Charlie

How are you Feeling I hope you are better
I am Having a good time Writing at school
it is cold out side We Had a good time
in School

love
Dianne"

This letter was found in a cookbook that my Aunt Blanche owned at my cousin Charlie's house. Both my great grandmother Marion and my Aunt Blanche owned separate copies. This gives us insight that people went around selling these cookbooks and possibly other items. The cookbook was printed in 1939; however, my great grandmothers was in much better shape when I saw Aunt Blanche's, but I believe this to be because my great grandmother was very fastidious when it came to her house, which explains why it was in lightly used condition. Although there is no date written, I think it is an absolute treasure drove as it was hidden away in a cookbook, it just shows that you can find all sorts of things hidden away in your house that could breath life into your family history. On a side note, relatives books should be fanned through before deciding what to do with them as there can be treasure troves like these! You never what you are going to find, you just have to look!

I'd like to promote my friend's business Civil War Record. My friend Brian has had years of hands on experience with these records. I personally have ordered records through Brian and have seen him onsite. I can attest that his expertise of the records at the National Archives is phenomenal. He is extremely knowledgeable and does presentations on what these records can potentially tell us. Any of my clients that order records through Brian, I will earn a 10 percent commission from orders from this link (down below in the comments).

I've come to the realization that what I do best is researching genealogical roadblocks or answering specific genealogical questions as this tends to be my absolute niche as I am able to hone in, focus and come up with either potential solutions or answers to the question by looking in the right areas. I really do well in the nitty gritty. I'd like to rebrand my company into a research service that focuses on answering/helping solve clients with roadblocks/genealogical problems in their research; however, I will still take clients that want their entire family tree, but I will not be giving a full report. I will only research clients family trees only if they specifically for a chart to put on the wall or for keepsake. I cannot take on entire family trees to make reports of because of me finishing up school and it also is just too overwhelming for me.
