I’ve decided to try something new.  I’m going to try and post a daily biography of someone in my family tree.  Here are the criteria for who gets selected.

1. The selected person has to be in my tree
2. The selected person cannot be living
3. The selected person was born on the date I am posting
4. The selected person is in my direct line.  If no one in my direct line was born on that date, the selected person will be a blood relative

I don’t profess to have all the details about the selected person correct.  I will include sources at the end of my entry.  If I have something incorrect, please drop me a quick comment so we can sort it out.

Thanks!
