GENEALOGY and where it can lead you

GENEALOGY
 took a surprising lead in the work of researchers 
Michael BAIGENT, 
Richard LEIGH ,
 Henry LINCOLN
 in their book which brought them to France and to our French-Canadian ancestry.
Published in 1982,
 THE HOLY BLOOD AND THE HOLY GRAIL
 gave rise to many queries and comments, some for, others against. Of course, the authors then had to publish another book in reply...
THE MESSIANIC LEGACY (1987) 
and later...
THE DEAD SEA SCROLLS DECEPTION (1991)
and finally...
THE JESUS PAPERS: EXPRESSING THE GREATEST COVER-UP IN HISTORY (2006).
These publications are for serious researchers of genealogy & not for faith-filled believers!!!

The MORMONS and GENEALOGY

The Latter Day Saints
commonly known as
the MORMONS
are well-known as having created the world's largest family database.
Most persons, who have dabbled in family ancestry, know this and have used the LDS database for their research. For this reason, I think you may be interested in the 2007 publication of a book written by
Donald AKENSON
If you have done any family research,
look up
SOME FAMILY; THE MORMONS
AND HOW HUMANITY KEEPS TRACK OF ITSELF.

Demise of WEBSHOTS

Unfortunately, WEBSHOTS was sold in 2012. The new owners changed the format & usage of the site when it became WEBSHOTS SMILE. The 2,000+ family pictures, etc. that I had there are no longer available & I've not found a comparable site where I may upload them. I barely managed to save the pictures, thanks to a friend.On the other hand, the identity of many of the individuals may be lost.
The work of 12 years is almost all lost, but I do want to thank everyone, who shared their pics with me & who allowed me to share them with you via WEBSHOTS.
Please don't write to tell me about possible sites where I may upload the pictures. I've seen them all & none, thus far, responds to my needs. Maybe eventually, a programmer will create another site that will have the amenities that the former WEBSHOTS had.
Some of my previous, older posts may contain a link leading you to the original WEBSHOTS.Of course, they'll lead you to nowhere. Sorry about that...but I can't do anything about it at the moment. And, I don't know if I'll have the courage to start this venture anew. At least the pictures of our ancestors were available for many years & now I don't know what the future will hold for them.

That's Life!
