ReplyDeleteThank you, Yvonne. I hope that you have a great weekend, too. :)
DeleteVery cool choice!
ReplyDeleteCheck out my Friday 56 (With Book Beginnings).
Thank you. There are some parts of it written in very old English and what appears to be Latin (or maybe Gaelic). I have the feeling that Google Translate is going to be used quite often for this one. It will be an adventure. :)
DeleteI visited (and followed) your blog. Your book looks like an interesting choice, too.
I hope that you have a great weekend. :)

ReplyDeleteThank you. I think it is, too, most especially because it covers a part of my family's history. I love family history research. :)
