Today I was trying to check on ancestor spouses and I realized I had no documentation that proved their spouses were actually married to them. Other people on ancestry.com had the spouses listed but there are no marriage certificates or licenses to prove it so I am feeling a bit daunted in that task and is it something I want to take on.
Yesterday I posted on the Williams County Ohio message board of Ancestry.com that I was willing to look up cemetery records for the County since I had all of the books. I already have 3 requests and I was able to help by find the records. One woman said she was dancing for joy and I totally know that feeling. It's like you just put the last piece of a puzzle together, well more like you fit one setion together because there is always more to go, but that section was a doozie!
Anyway I still get a thrill helping others out when my own research has been stalled.
I still have other names that I can input, so do I stop that and concentrate on who was married to who or what?
That is the question for this evening.
