We received an email this week that had us all smiling in happiness and disbelief. We were contacted by a teacher, informing us that she had run a Genealogy section in her curriculum this year. Her students came upon our work on the web while doing research.
The teacher contacted us to let us know that they had visited the site, and also had a few links for us to add to aid in our research.
It was so thrilling to hear that we had made an impact, and even more exciting was the fact that this teacher was sharing her love of Genealogy with her students. I couldn’t agree more with one of her statements. It’s very important to understand where we come from. I’m so glad we were able to share with these young minds, and that they were able to share back.
Yay!!!!!
