Dating tips for genealogists The cemetery is not a normal rendezvous point for a first date. Resist the temptation to wear a t-shirt that says "I love dead folks" or "I feel happiest in graveyards" Making the observation that your date's soundex code is K564 is unlikely to impress them If your date likes you enough to reveal their date of birth, do no ask for an independent source of proof When driving your date home after dinner, do not take a "romantic detour" via the local history center To aid recognition on a blind date, wear a bright flower or carry a copy of a well known book. Do not carry a copy of "Olafson's Illustrated Guide to the Swedish Cemeteries of Illinois" When asked what you would like for your birthday or Christmas, do not say "Dead Relatives" When popping the question, do not start it by saying "We Could Make a Beautiful Family Tree Together"

Oh wow, I feel really dumb LOL. My first thought when reading the subject line was, is this going to be about how to date some of the ancestors info/ages/ whatever! I have been staying up to late reading!
