The Year Ahead – May 26

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.

May 26 – Look for postcards showing your ancestors or their favorite places, both in your own collection at sites like Ancestry.com www.ancestry.com/search/collections/8705.

I decided to look for postcards from my hometown of Fond du Lac, Wisconsin. The postcard that shows the old Public Library makes me sad. I know they tore it down in 1966 to build the new library. In 2004, a 12,000 square-foot addition was put on the rear and interior renovations were also made. The only thing that is the same, is the location. That old library was such a beautiful building. It looked like a castle.

Remember to have fun and Just do Genealogy!
