52 Ancestors in 52 weeks

I had a lot of fun with my genealogy blog  in 2013.  I’ve managed to combine all of my favorite past times – writing, genealogy and cooking – into one space.

While I’m not a New Year’s Resolution kind of girl, I did read a Facebook update from Lisa Ling that talked about how she plans to write something everyday of the year, no matter how small. 

I decided I’d follow in her footsteps and write a little bit every day, even if it wasn’t on Rooted In Foods.  So Far so good. 

I’m combining daily writing with another challenge. My friend, Amy, over at No Story Too Small has challenged genealogy bloggers to write about one ancestor every week of 2014. I love this idea, for all the reasons she mentions in her post, Challenge: 52 Ancestors in 52 Weeks and then some. 

I’ll be posting on Mondays and starting with recent ancestors … working my way back and around a little bit.  

If you want to hop on the challenge bandwagon, just head over to Amy’s post and follow her directions. 

It will be fun to read all about everyone’s ancestors … you just never know what will be uncovered!
