johnridleyI did a google search on one of J's ancestors, and they turned up a Google Books scan of a 1915 genealogy book. It's 400 dense pages of ancestors, many new bits of data both new people and much more or more exact data on bits we already had.
Honestly, it may take me months to get through this one source. It has great stuff in it, even things like a statement made by a widow to claim Revolutionary War survivors benefits, that the same guy was a minute man and served on the constitutional convention in 1820, etc. It's stuff like that that really makes things more interesting.
I've been on it 2 hours and I've only done 2 pages.
