So I haven't done this in a while, but I really like this idea. Randy Seaver's SNGF post today is a good one:
1) What is on your Genealogy Bucket List? What research locations do you
want to visit? Are there genea-people that you want to meet and share
with? What do you want to accomplish with your genealogy research?
List a minimum of three items - more if you want!
2) Tell us about it in a blog post of your own (please give me a link in
Comments), a comment to this post in Comments, a status line or comment
on Facebook., or a Google+ Stream post.
So my big three, in no particular order:
1) For travel, there are two main places I'd like to visit: Denmark (especially Copenhagen) and Wales (particularly Merthyr Tydfil where my great grandfather was born). I'd love to see where my ancestors lived, and get help finding birth and death records for the most immediate generations there, at least. For a more complete (if not perfectly accurate any longer) list of where I'd love to go, see here.
2) I also want to write a book about my great-grandmother Oline. It's in the early writing stages now, but I really want to see it published. I think it will be wonderful, and I think it could help others find their own roots.
3) I would love to make a living as a genealogist. I keep putting it off, though. I need to call the ones currently working in the area, see if I can help them, and try to get into a genealogy class and actually get a certificate.
So those are mine. What are yours?
