J is for "Just," as in "just one more..."


J is for “just,” as in “just one more ….”  This is the cry of the never finished research.  Be brave, take a stand, finish a small bit and distribute it however you intended – to family, to a local genealogical society, to friends who are cheering you on.  Might your conclusions be amended when more records are found in a church attic…perhaps.  But for today, for now, you have done everything “right,” and the world deserves to see (and possibly point out something you didn’t know!).

I may start using a footnote in reports for myself that reads TDL aka "to do later."  A fact found creates a question to be answered, but… answering that question is not central to the story/question that is on the table, and therefore TDL. 


Till next time,

"things" in April & early May.  I'm back...

2018 begins with an "ABC-darium," a walk through the alphabet expanding into short comments on matters genealogical.  Published usually on Tuesday and some Fridays, a letter may be visited more than once before moving on.
