Nope, we cannot leave them alone.<br /><br />And, now, I must go link a death cert I found on the Missouri Death Records site just yesterday, 1964.

Then, I ...I say that too, "Never again".<br /><br />Then, I go get more! LOL <br /><br />Staying out of shiny deep research holes, impossible. Or nearly so!

You aren't the only one with this ...Oh, Carol! You aren't the only one with this problem. I did a major cleanup project and got a lot of the stuff on my computer input and organized. But, I didn't finish. I still have several folders to go through. And, then I have this problem. More records became available online! How can I not research the French and Azoreans records when I've waited 10 years to view them? And, what about those San Francisco Bay Area marriage records that came online last year? I couldn't leave those be...they were calling out to me.<br /><br />I suspect I will forever be catching up.

I thought I would put something eye catching as the first page of the folder, like a marriage certificate. Not one member of my family is interested in doing any research; they sometimes read the story I write when I have enough information about a couple to write it. My hope is that someone might pick up where I leave off if the paper isn't thrown away. But, to get to the point, I started printing documents and found I had multiple copies of too many pages. So I started cleaning out the duplicates. Sometimes I couldn't decide whether to keep a copy in each person's file..........so I did. It is taking FAR longer than I thought it would. Sometimes it's because I get side tracked when I find something I forgot I had. Sometimes it's because I had to research that document again to see if it was mine or trash. Most of it is just because of the total volume and each thing has to be looked at individually. I say I won't ever let this mess happen again.Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13256855136448978468noreply@blogger.com
