I did a post along the same lines. Yours focuses more on specific events, though, which is neat.

Happy New Year!

As I’ve been looking at ways to compile research, I’ve been thinking about what might be the most interesting format in which to present family tree/historical information. The world was a far different place in 1911, and in 1811. Where the names, dates, and map points end for our ancestors, providing some context around their lives and times adds a little more detail around what their lives might have been like. Happy new year!

Love the photos as well – they’re marvellous. I’ve started thinking about what ancestors in my family were doing in 1911/12, and I think I’ll send the results around to my (adult) kids & cousins! Thanks again.
