I am fascinated by the information you had on Presbyterian Churches. You actually had something on Rev. Samuel McSpadden who is my husbands 6th great uncle. Thank you for the wonderful information you shared

Wonderful information on the nuances of the different religious sects and their documentation styles. This adds another tool into my genealogy tool box when searching for answers to deceptively simple questions like, where do I come from, who are my people, are you sure? Thanks for a wonderful marathon. I look forward to reviewing the videos next week, to catch what I missed, and glean all that I can... Starting with of course, Writing as You Go is the WAY to Go!
