Write it down!!!!
When I first began to dabble into family history work, I had no idea where to begin. I thought the best source was to ask my family. Perfect! Who would know better about my ancestors than my family?! So I went ahead and asked my parents: --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -"Mom, tell me about your Mother's mother! What do you know? Where was she born? Who did she marry? " -"Well, her name was Petrona . I have no idea what her husband's (my Grandpa's) name was. I don't remember any dates or anything. "What about your Father's side? -"I don't really know Mija, All I know was my Grandma's name was Victoria. She was old when I was a little girl... she loved us very much and would read to us at night" -"so... you don't know who she married?" -"ummm... well, I think so.... I think his name was....... Jacinto.... I think... I don't know....
