Some of the cousins just don't understand what all the fuss is about--some think computers are evil, but when I arrive with photo calendars, totes and T-shirts with our ancestors screen printed on them (created by my computer), it's a whole new ballgame. :o) I live near Akron,OH now. I grew up in Northern VA and moved to OH in Feb 1994. Imagine my surprise when I started doing research and found out my great Aunt lived in Akron!! Sadly I started doing research about 2 years too late. She had 4 children and only 1 Grandchild. All but the Grandchild is deceased.(and he's elderly) Nickole
Nickole: Sometimes you can do genealogy of our mountain people almost as well in Akron as in the mountains - as I did in Mogadore. I was surprised how many Prestonians lived within a couple of blocks.
