Searching can be fun and take many hours. This was a new discovery that showed up recently to help with our search and it’s a pretty headstone. But searching can have it’s pitfalls. Don’t be discouraged. Also don’t give up because you think your not finding anything important or helpful. Put it away for awhile and then you might make a discovery. Case in point, My Step-aunt’s father. Newer census records told me that what we thought was his real given name, wasn’t the case. We discovered that he was adopted. And then we found is real last name, and the search was back on. Give things time and new discoveries will pop up.
