I was awed and inspired by the responses to Randy’s challenge. Love the “Sweet 16″ tag.

A “Road Map” for a “Roadblock.” A research plan is a very important tool. To that I add a time-line. Who was where and when. Sometimes place or time blanks, inconsistencies, or clusters will scream out at you.

I’m looking forward to your research plan and the logical progression of thought you possess.

There is a little more information available, but I can’t be absolutely certain of any of it. Thanks to encouragement from fellow Genea-Bloggers, I have written up what I know and don’t know about her, so I am hoping that will take me somewhere.

LOL – I agree. We should do a post on “time management” or finding time to do what you want (like genealogy) instead of work or school! I think we just need to retire so we’ll have more time to research. ;-)

I’m missing a few of my sweet sixteen too….I have many plans, but need to create a plan to find the time to do the research :)
