52 Ancestors in 52 Weeks: Start


My blog and I need a shot of adrenaline, so this year I will be participating in Amy Johnson Crow's "52 Ancestors in 52 Weeks" challenge.  The spirit of this event hearkens back a decade or so ago, to when I was part of an online Genealogy Blog Carnival that also offered writing and research challenges.  Like "52 Ancestors," the event generated interest and team support among family historians of all experience and knowledge levels.  If you've ever considered participating in a group writing challenge as a way to organize or share your research, try it!  There is nothing like it for motivation and camaraderie, especially within the family history community.
