Family Tree

Something that I have in mind to accomplish is to work on our Family Trees. My dad did a lot of research of his lineage and left a file full of notes and charts. My mother has a chest packed with pictures chronicling her family line. I dream of scanning and labeling all these family pictures, collecting their stories, and making a record of all our various and dubious branches of heredity for all the kids to have. I wonder often about taking a month out of the year and making our Family Tree a school project where we visit family, gather stories, copy pictures and trace names, places, and events as far as our families can remember. Then perhaps digging a little further and searching court records, newspaper archives, and the like.

This is a picture of Steve's paternal great grandparents (if I've got that correct). Aren't they magnificent?
