Ran Away With The Dish and The Spoon

I know, I know....it's been ages since I updated this blog. But I guess if I am admitting that then I have to admit that it has been ages since I've done any real genealogy work. Allow me to explain.

I started taking a few graphic design classes and between that and normal life it seems that genealogy kinda fell through the cracks. But I am ready to get back on the horse so to speak and the opportunity to do it might be just around the corner.

My family is planning a trip to Chicago in the next month just as a get together of sorts but the great part is that I have a few relatives in Chicago that I am looking forward to contacting. I am hoping that they will remember some of the names that I have for the Sprolls side of the family and let me know if I am on the right trail and if they have pictures will that would just be an added bonus.

Also I don't know if you remember my great trip to Mississippi but we might have a reason to go back and if we do then I am going to try and see if Arkansas is not to far away and maybe we can make a stop there also so that I can look up some other family.

Until then, I do have some research that I have to find here in good ol' Missouri but I need the money and the time for a trip downtown to the records office and hopefully I will be back on track.

So I just wanted to give a small update on where I'm at and let you know that I haven't given up and that there is more information to come. Talk soon.
