I know mine was all in Pennsylvania (mostly in coal mines) and Rick’s was all in Wisconsin. They didn’t move much, but stayed within their states and married within their ethnic groups. You’re a wonderful lady (but you know that). The patience of a saint to home school. Miss you guys!

Had I known I had an ancestor at Gettysburg, I would have paid more attention in class I’m sure.

Each family’s history is so varied and fascinating. There are countless lessons there. Your children will love it!

Second, this is great to hear. It is so important to get kids personally invested in what they are learning, and I can’t think of a better way to connect U.S. History to kids on such a deep, personal level.
