I should have done this from the beginning, but hind site is 20/20 right?  If you're ever interested in seeing past ancestor of the week photo's, click the link under the banner at the top of the page that says "Featured ancestor of the week" and you will be able to find the.  The ancestor pics start as of the ones poste 11/9/08. 

Ok y'all im out of ancestor of the week submissions!!  Email me your pics to get yoru relative on the main page of the site for a week!!  Send pic and information on the person (birth, death, marriage, interesting facts etc) to ancestralspace@gmail.com so we can honor them!!  If you have an unknown person, I'll be glad to post it for a week to see if anyone recognizes them!!

The October/November 2008 issue of the magazine Internet-Genealogy features an article written by John Lindermuth on the merits of using myspace for genealogy.  John approached me for my thoughts on the matter back in June.  When I was answering his questions the idea for THIS site came to mind and the rest is history lol  I havent been able to find the mag anywhere in my town yet, and someone with a subscription very nicely scanned the article and sent it to me and he not only put my ideas on the subject in the article HE GAVE THE URL FOR THIS SITE IN IT!!!!.  Since the article does carry a copy right, I wont post it here, but if anyone wants to see it send me a message and I will send it to you.

Its time for y'all to send in new pics, I'm almost out of pictures for Ancestor of the Week.  Email your picture and information you have on the person to shanifaye@gmail.com AND a link to your page so I know who to link the picture too!!

We have almost been online for 3 months now and have over 800 members!!  Be sure to spread the word about it among you and in your genealogy groups and help us grow bigger and help more people!!

Thats right, its only taken two months, but we have our first genealogy related sponsor!! (I cant count the ancestrally challenged site, cause thats mine lol)  and I have to say I REALLY REALLY REALLY like the items that are offered on the site, they are really funny and interesting. I've found NUMEROUS shirts Im going to go broke trying to buy lol, good think I've given up smoking, Im going to need the extra money.  I see on the site that right now they are offering a 10 dollar off coupon for orders over 75 dollars if you put in the appropriate coupon code ( Cafepoa1075 ) You can find the link in the sponsors area of the site.... or you can go here
