Remember the Ladies

   Welcome to this week's Tree Talk Tuesdays! It has been 5 weeks that we have been at this blog now. I hope you have been enjoying them. In honor of this month being Mother's Day we have a display in the Genealogy Department titled "Remember the Ladies-Abigail Adams 1776"

   Tracing the female line of your Genealogy often times is a one of those brick walls we all run into. So what do you do when all you can find is an entry that says "Mrs. John Smith'? We have several books in our collection that can help you break through those brick walls.
