I am a retired online school teacher. During July 2007 - January 2010, and September 2011 until the present I have provided part-time support for http://www.familysearch.org This is very rewarding. My greatest strength in this area is the free genealogy software Personal Ancestral File 5 (PAF5). I continue to help others with PAF and New FamilySearch. See http://genforum.genealogy.com/paf/
Since April 2010, I am an assistant director of Edmonton Riverbend Family History Center. I have a FHC blog at Bill's Family History Center Blog For information the Latter-day Saints and family history click http://mormon.org/

Saturday, December 12, 2009

It has been a very good week. I created a December 2009 version of the Buchanan Family Tree book, which adds 304 of Andrew and Jane's descendants since my 2007 version of the BFT book. Within the next few days I will have it available on my website for downloading. (Nearly half of those names came from Debbie Kerkowich's genealogy of the descendants of Robert Buchanan and Sarah Agnes Jackson. One person's contributions can make a big difference.)
Our Artistic Cousins I received an email from Marion Joyce (Mernie) Buchanan, who is an artist in California. It included her website, http://www.mernie.com/merniebio2.html This has a link to her sister Catherine's website. http://www.catherinebuchanan.com/ Both websites include bios of the artists. They are daughters of Roy Norman Buchanan and Joan Marion Clausen. Here is a picture of Mernie from her website:
