Back in the dawn of the Internet I maintained a Genealogy database on my own site, Boyd-Family.net. After more than two decades I’m closing down some of the many sites I have had and consolidating everything into just a few actual databases… I’m lazy and it’s much easier to maintain and keep all of the software updated. So I’ve pulled my Research Blog into this site.
I haven’t written anything here for quite a while. Maybe I’ll actually update what I’m still doing in the way of research occasionally… But since most of my research now happens on Ancestry.com via their databases, I am not sure how much I’ll have to say.
If you’d like to check out my Family Tree you can find it at this site now…
