Sorry, everyone -- I have gotten your emails and will catch up as soon as I can. Our baby was born in mid-April but is in the hospital's NICU where she will be through probably mid- to late June. I, of course, am out of the hospital myself, but I feel like I barely have time to breathe right now! But I will catch up as I can!

I'm currently at the library and we are looking at this book - what a great find! This book is full of information on Kaskaskia and full of parish records and other gems of genealogical information.
Here's a short little video of some places around Ste. Genevieve. We were just playing around this time but be looking in the future for some "real" stuff. :)
If you have or obtain a Viddler.com account, feel free to tag, comment on, or add notes to the video, too.
Special thanks to my friend Chris Talley Armstrong who, along with Lisel Schoenberger, produced the music used on the video. Her website is chris-talley.com, please check it out!
Well, I'm finally doing it. Finally telling you all about a little photographic tour of Ste. Genevieve. Visit the following link to go to a map where you can find photos I've taken and plotted.
It's a bit hard to explain how this map works, but I think that if you play around with it a bit you can hopefully find some interesting things. Note the pages up in the left hand area. Flip through pages (currently there are three) to find more photos. Photos are organized partially by date, so as you flip through the pages, the plots on the map will change. Zoom in (use the zoom thing to the right or double-click on the map in an empty spot to go in a level) and the plots will get more and more specific. For instance, if you see a plot that says there are 30 photos in a certain area, but zoom in one level, that might split into two plots worth 19 and 11 and so on. In fact, here's a link that should take you to the heart of downtown, zoomed in all the way.
In fact, play around and feel free to search other locations if you are interested or click to find photos from people other than me!
