What a thrill to meet new cousins! Especially when they are interested in what you are interested in.
Yesterday, I met a cousin on my fathers side of the family. Then this morning I received an e-mail from her father! How exciting - two new cousins within a day.
We are all descendants of Lazarus House. I look forward to exchanging information with Cheryl and Harry regularly. Welcome to our family.

Welcome!
Thanks for stopping by. This is a fairly new adventure for me so forgive me if this is not perfect. Join me on my journey in finding out more about my "Genes". Feel free to stop by anytime. I tend to work on other things from time to time so unfortunately, sometimes there are no recent posts. Come back though.

Every time something new pops up, or I find a picture never before seen or even a recipe it is a thrill! Since I still consider myself new at genealogy this is something I will continue to enjoy for the rest of my life. I have not given up yet! Meeting new cousins is a thrill too.Genealogywise

How wonderful that you've connected with new cousins. This is what I need to hear in-order to prompt me to write one of mine, lost to distance and time. BTW, I see your childhood hair was similar to my style (which I'll be posting soon, ugh).
How exciting! Blogging is an awesome way to meet up with new relatives!
