Who Do You Think You Are?
Mar. 5th, 2010 08:35 pmI'm watching the first episode of "Who Do You Think You Are?" right now and it's fascinating seeing someone else (in this case Sarah Jessica Parker) go through the process of researching their family.
I've found out so much about the mother's side of my family over the past year plus I've been researching the family ancestry. I also have all of this information that I want to do something with, but can't quite figure out what. I've toyed with the idea of working on a fictional story based on some of the information. I think it might be a fun sort of catharsis for me.
I am currently working on an actual narrative for a few of the branches and doing maps of their migration from New England (and England and Wales in some cases) on West.
What I'd also like is SJP's money to visit all the sites where my family lived through the years. My mother and I have already discussed doing a trip to Colorado at some point where her father's family were some of the first settlers near Pike's Peak.
