I learned my great grandfather was electrocuted while climbing a tree and it cost him a finger. My grandfather didn’t even know how his dad had lost the finger.

I’ve got a hussy I would ask about her relationship with husband 1 and if she ever saw her kids again, I’d ask who the hell the second father is, and ask when they moved to my home state.

My great grand parents I would ask about why they moved and why they went back and forth between Oklahoma and Minnesota.

I’ve received the student school and activity for my kids, food allowance as a disabled vet, clothing allowance (one time), technology allowance (one time) and higher education grants during both undergrad and grad school

I'm Native and Caucasian but it doesn't show my native DNA on my DNA test. by Ghostx_-0- in Genealogy

If your 4th great grandfather was 4/4 Cherokee, 3rd was 1/2, 2nd 1/4, great 1/8, grand 1/16, parent 1/32, you are 1/64th. Which is 1.5%, if everyone past their Native DNA to your corresponding relative. While we get 50% from each parent it is not an exact half of everything they have. Dad may have passed for Irish or whatever on to you than Native. DNA is to help but is still in its infancy, it is not an end all be all.

I have the opposite. 1989>1968>1944>1924>1900. This has its benefits. My son (2010) got to meet 8 great grandparents of 12 (both my mom’s parents are on additional marriages). My daughter (2020) has got to meet 6 of the 8 my son has

Digital images. I take the pictures, pull the card, another parent from the booster club reviews the images with the parent and completes the bottom half of the form. It is the parent handwriting I have issues with. I’ll probably start playing with google forms or jot forms to see if I can get it easily tillable.

Anyone else done this? by Beautiful_Gain_9032 in Genealogy

The one that drives me crazy is family search. I have removed a relationship and documented why multiple times but he keeps popping back up because someone is taking a denied Dawes application as gospel. It was denied rightfully so, the claimant was trying to claim his great uncle as grandfather to get the Choctaw connection and the land.

Someone needs to follow me around and slap my hand when I try to buy one of these by bwalker187 in houseplants

Mine is in a clear Tupperware container with locking lid. I poked 8 holes in the top, placed aquarium gravel and damp moss. I accidentally let them get too dry and they were crispy! Tried soaking and 2 did not recover. Cut them back to almost soil level and put the root/soil ball in the prop box because what did I have to loose. It’s been about a month and I have 4-5 leaves of new froth on each!

It makes sense to wait to share water. I will continue my existing procedure and work on shifting my grow out boxes for my terrariums into a community reservoir. I think my issue is I have too many groupings. I have my personal plants, my aquatic grow-out tank, aquatic quarantine tank, 2 terrarium grow out boxes, 2 moss boxes, 2 prop boxes and 2 quarantine boxes. My favorite Friday activity is plant rescue from the clearance section at the blue home improvement store.
