Hello, welcome to my blog on Martyr’s, Monk’s, Saint’s, and Mayhem.
I have taken my time with what ancestors that I thought would be important to blog on via family history for me, and what to pass onto future generations of my family.

A Maternal Line of Mine I am Currently Source Indexing on Ancestry
A Successful Day of Source Indexing
I recently had a successful day of source indexing and was able to put my 9th great grandfather’s timeline together, along with a good amount of sources to end the day with, making his life story come alive before my eyes. I thought I would share what I found and pieced together on my family tree.
This has become a literal dream come true for me! Never did I ever dream of learning about my ancestors on TikTok, nor did I ever imagine coming across a page with all of my ancestors and family history stories being brought to life, and even with LIVE tours to go along with it, and story time too for the Castle Crew Members!

I recently started wondering if it is important or not to have all of my family tree public or if I should password protect a certain sections for family only. If I have it public, and it’s only unorganized screenshots, vital records and new findings I’m currently investigating, it makes my blog everywhere and all over, so I made a seperate link for that section, and, so I decided to privatize them for those that are family, extended family, and distant cousins that are also working on the same family tree so we can compare.

I recently discovered that Family Search has Advanced Strategies for Searching Historical Records, even though I’ve been using Family Search for years I’m still learning. What they did was add a huge database to expand the search and amount of content that can be added for source indexing, which is great.
