I’m planning to do a collection of posts I’ve seen other people do recently involving all 50 states. You do each post about a specific state and the family connections you may have to that state. I’ll give credit to Julie over at Julie’s Genealogy & History Hub since I read her’s first. Obviously, I probably won’t have posts for every single state as my family doesn’t have connections to every state.
Here are the states I do have connections to that I will be posting about. Hopefully, these posts also dig up some new info or research paths as these things sometimes do. I will update this post with links to all of the state posts, so bookmark it.
- California
- Colorado
- Connecticut
- Hawaii
- Idaho
- Illinois
- Indiana
- Iowa
- Kentucky
- Maine
- Maryland
- Massachusetts
- Michigan
- Minnesota
- Missouri
- New Hampshire
- New York
- Ohio
- Oregon
- Pennsylvania
- Rhode Island
- Utah
- Vermont
- Virginia
- West Virginia
- Wisconsin
That’s not a bad list. It’s more than I originally thought. Stay tuned for the first state!
Thanks for the shout-out, Brian. Someone else actually started the theme (see the bottom of my posts for info). At first I wasn’t sure about it, simply because I don’t have people (that I’ve studied) in all 50 states, but I decided it might be an opportunity to learn more about resources available in the states that I am less familiar with for future reference. It’s actually come in pretty handy, and as always, I welcome any educational opportunity. Good luck and enjoy the journey across the US!!
