Comment on Google Docs Comments and Discussions in Genealogy by Heather Wilkinson Rojo

I just had a great experience with Google Docs. I was helping someone with their Mayflower lineage application papers. They had a cousin put up a ten page genealogy report on Google Docs, so between the two cousins and me we were able to print out another report for the Historian. Then they put up another genealogy that showed ancestry going back to Newfoundland, and we all puzzled over it, found sources and fixed things up. One of us was in Massachusetts, another in New York state and I was in New Hampshire. It all worked out fine!

This is a grand post. Thanks so much for explaining it terms that make it clear to we non-tinkerers how gifted your ggrandfather was. I am all admiration.

Very clever! I can see where the ‘how can I make this better’ gene came from!

My uncle on my dad’s side was also kept in a shoebox in the warm oven–Nebraska in 1925. The carbuncle story is hilarious, Lee, the events and the way you tell them. Thanks again for sharing!
