Stepping out on the limb of the family tree!

I got into genealogy several years ago, but I never really got serious about it. I'd do a little research, then forget about it for months and months! Even when I was back in my hometown, I couldn't take advantage of being close to all those historical records because I was never prepared.

So now I've gone back to the beginning. I've been taking some classes from a couple of SERIOUS genealogists. As far as my records are concerned, I am starting again from scratch - with me - and making sure I have all the facts and sources annotated correctly.

As I go along, I will be able to see where the "holes" are in my records. This will give me something to work with when I do my online research and when I am visiting my family in Maryland.

So here begins - yet again - my genealogical journey to research my Relative Lines!
