My sweet Grandma Barton, Verla Ellen Birt Barton, my inspiration for beginning my work on family history. I started with asking her a few questions, which then led to having a lunch date to record dates and names she already had, which in turn led to a plethora of written family histories and stories she had stowed away in her drawer. Grandma has been saying she needs to work on family history, but she has been doing so all along...collecting histories, names, dates, work other family members have done, everything one needs. Now, I'll just do the technological stuff for her!
