Little House: On The Prairie Week 1

One of the suggested thoughts for this book is to do a family history for your own family, during the 1870's.  We have not been able to trace my husband's history very far back...ahh, a name like Smith makes things a tad difficult :o)  But my grandmother's family, on her father's side, has been taken all the way back to England and the early 1800's so far.

You will find plenty of sites to get you started on genealogy if you are so inclined.  One of the best resources you will find is through the LDS churches FamilySearch organization records.  They offer a huge wealth of information and histories on file and are very helpful in aiding your research.
