The Year Ahead – March 25

In the January/February 2024 issue of Family Tree Magazine, they have introduced The Year Ahead, 366 genealogy tips will make 2024 your best research year yet by Lisa A Alzo. Lisa mapped out a day-by-day research plan.

March 25 – use Chronicling America < https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/ > to search over 20 million historical newspapers from around the United States.

If you don’t find your family, you might find interesting stories. I found an interesting story about Johanna Hilts from 1914, who lived in Olympia, Washington. She talked backed to her boss about his comments that girls can eat on 10 cents a meal, when it wasn’t his stomach. She stated that his meal at noon that day coast $2.40 for himself and that was more than he paid his laundry girl all week. For saying this, she was fired. 

Remember to have fun and Just do Genealogy!
