Gypsy Girl asked:


I am wondering if there are any genealogy sites that are collecting info from probate records that I could donate to. Since I will be searching the records anyway, perhaps my time could be useful to other people as well.

Jo asked:


I know that we can submit our family tree to ancestry.com and others, but I would like to set up a website for the vast amount of information that I have collected. I would also like to provide a link from other sites. I have tons of vital records, photographs, census pages, obituaries, funeral programs, etc. I would like to set it up so that others can visit and view the documents and photos.

I love learning about the origins of people. I would like to further research my fathers line and the earliest thing I can find is that our immigrant ancestor came from England. I know that there are tons of genealogy sites but I dont want to pay money and then not find anything. So I was wondering if there is anyone out there that has any information regarding the Sharp surname?

Lola asked:


Unexpected places can lead to great breakthroughs, like checking my gr-gr-gr-grandfather’s brother’s commitment to an county old age home, led me to discover they weren’t the only ones to come to America? What led you to your breakthroughs?
A source that really helped me was my grandmother’s funeral book. Her sister who died a short time later filled in the family section.

I am trying my hand at genealogy and am working on the Minter side and found we are related to the Jones also. We were invited to the family reunion in Texas a few years back and I have lost the email address.
