Genealogy companion site
There is a companion site my Family History blog. It’s the “Genealogy” site that’s listed on the menu. This is a stand-alone website that contains my complete family tree. It includes maps, downloadable source documents, photos and more. You can also download gedcom files, pdf printouts, and family listings. Information about living persons is shielded from public view, but I do grant password access to family members who want to see the full version of the site.
