What's a saying that kid's nowadays will never know?

Hope everyone's finding time for some family history work amidst their busy week.




A little humor for your weekend...

I shared this on the OnGenealogy Facebook page. It's a meme from The Idea Room:

Some of my favorites were:

"While you're up, please change the channel..."

"Please be kind...Rewind"

"Come home when the street lights come on."

"Liver...it's what's for dinner!" I hated liver and onions.

"Who wants to clean the chalkboard?"

The sound of a carriage return (typewriter)

"Drop off the film to be developed."

Shaking the Polaroid for the picture to develop

"Get off the phone, I'm expecting a call."

Stretching the phone cord to have a "private" conversation

"Here's a quarter, call me if you have an emergency."






How'd I miss this?

I don't know how I missed this but two years ago FamilySearch created FamilySearch Community where you can join with other researchers and share tips, etc for genealogy in different shared areas of interest. Their site map and home page don't really help you find it, so here's the link and the URL for future reference: FamilySearch Community at https://community.familysearch.org.
