In 2025 I only wrote three blog posts, one about my Kilcullen ancestors in Sligo, Ireland, and two about my Chandler and Brown ancestors and Chandler and Dane ancestors in colonial America. Despite the lack of writing, I did a lot of research, mainly around those same ancestors, in anticipation of future posts. I also visited American Ancestors in Boston and scanned a bunch of books relating to New England ancestors. I am still reading through those scans and working to align the details with my own research.
Goals for 2026:
Wishing anyone who reads this little blog a very happy 2026! May this be the year you smash all those brick walls.
- Write a follow-up to my Kilcullen post about the generation of Kilcullens who left Sligo for America (I am still in progress on this research)
- Write a follow up to a 2015 post I wrote about some Dickson relatives, having recently learned some very disturbing information about one of them
- Continue to read through the documents from American Ancestors related to the Chaplin, Ingersoll, Scoville, and Webster families.
- Finally write the post I started drafting over a year ago about my 10th great-grandmother, Elizabeth Fones
