Bucket List

The Bucket List was a great movie and all across the country people created their own bucket list after either watching the movie or hearing about it.

Genealogist typically have our genealogical bucket list. I know I do.

Not necessarily in order of importance:

1) Go to Washington and Morgan County Ohio where several branches of my family migrated to.

2) Find and visit the grave of Martin Birdsell.

3) Trace all lines back to the immigrant ancestor.

4) Become a certified genealogist.

5) Publish articles in the top magazines.

6) Publish books on several family lines.

7) Visit the area where Marion Birdsell homesteaded.

8) Leave well researched and documented material for the next genealogist in the family to stumble across so they can pick up where I left off.

What's on your bucket list?
