Hello again! This month I share my progress in completing my PALS application for the Genealogical Society of Pennsylvania, as well, including some recent death certificates as well as some colonial-era court and tax records. Later, I lament not having contacted some older relatives who passed away in recent years.

In this month's episode, I explain my activities on FamilySearch.org's global family tree, resolving record suggestions pertaining to my Smith ancestors and relatives. I describe what the family tree showed after I resolved all record hints, which is that we may well have Smith cousins living in the Boston area. Lastly, I describe the elevator accident that took the life of one potential Boston relative, Edward Smith, in the winter of 1915.

In this month's episode, I review what I discovered during this summer's epic cycling tour of Lancaster and Sunbury. I visit a local cemetery with my brother, niece, and nephew. I untangle some potential Smith ancestors on the FamilySearch global family tree, and I ponder making a backup server to help reduce the website's downtime.
