Hard to believe we’re at the last weekend before Thanksgiving and time is flying by. The Stufflebean excitement this week was discovering that a pack rat took up residence in the aluminum duct tube connecting to our dryer. After building a nest in there, he settled in and died! Dave said he was big, fat and gray and he’s been deposited down in the wash. With all the rain today, I think he has moved on. By the way, we never heard any sounds in the tube, but noticed an odor over the past three days. We have a new duct tube installed and can now get laundry done!
Back to this weekend’s challenge, though, since it is time for Saturday Night Genealogy Fun with Randy Seaver:
1) Who is Number 100 in your ahnentafel list? Tell us about him. {If you don’t have a #100, use another number].
2) How do you descend from #100?
#100 in my Ahnentafel is my 4X great grandfather, William Tarbox (1779-1860), of New Gloucester, Cumberland, Maine. I’ve written about him and the surprise about where he actually died.
#50 is my 3X great grandfather, George Rogers Tarbox (1818-1895) of New Gloucester, several towns in Massachusetts and New Hampshire and, lastly, of Calais, Washington, Maine. I did a complete ancestor sketch for George. There were 4 other parts in the series.
#25 is my 2X great grandmother, Nellie F. (Tarbox) Adams (1856-1927) who married Calvin Segee Adams. They lived in Calais, Washington, Maine. I’ve also written about Nellie.
#12 is my great grandfather, Charles Edwin Adams (1877-1922) of Calais, Washington, Maine. He married Annie Maude Stuart.
#6 is my grandfather, Vernon Tarbox Adams (1899-1968) of Calais, Washington, Maine, Massachusetts, New York and New Jersey, due to his job as a regional manager with Western Union. He married Hazel Ethel Coleman.
#3 is my mother, Doris Priscilla (Adams) Sabo (1923-2008) of Calais, Washington, Maine and then most of the other places where Vernon lived. She married George Michael Sabo.
#1 is ME.
This was a fun challenge and, like last week’s, it can be used many times simply by choosing a different Ahnentafel number. Thanks, Randy!
I too really enjoyed this challenge and also love how it can be used over and over. It also reminded me I need to create more ancestor landing pages…in all my “spare” time.
Oh, my, what an adventure with pack rats! I, too, enjoyed this easy challenge.
I also meant to say, shudders on the rat issue…so far we haven’t had it happen to us, but now I’m a bit paranoid!
