52 Ancestors in 52 Weeks - Week 51 2019 Review of Genealogy Goals

One of my goals for 2019 was to finally finish collecting the records needed to finish my daughter’s application to the Daughters of the American Revolution. I did it! My daughter will be sworn in as a member in January, 2020. Her application will act as a springboard for my son’s application to the Son’s of the Revolution.
I signed up to participate in the 52 Ancestors in 52 Weeks again as a way to inspire me to continue my blogging. I was less successful this year, only writing half as often as I did in 2018. I hope to do better in 2020.
In 2019, I discovered “Virtual Education” and have taken several classes from the comfort of home. One of the classes I took, through the Utah Genealogy Associations, was “Intermediate Foundations” and was very intensive. This has led me to other classes both virtual and in person.
I am a member of Gina Philibert- Ortega’s book club and have managed to read all of the books for the past year.
I have also remained at program chair for our local genealogy group and maintain the group website.
I am happy with my accomplishments in 2019 and plan additional challenges for 2020. Tomorrow I will write about my goals for 2020.
