This month of Genealogy By Tim G., I finally (mostly) finish my year-long quest to enter the descendants of Peter Mumma posted at Mumma.org into my own database before turning my attention to researching my own surname, Graham. I remember my first cousin twice removed John Patrick Graham, who passed away last December. Lastly, I work on clearing BillionGraves's new paywall last week, a job I expect to finish this week on Twitch.

It's been a slow news month, genealogy-wise, and I recorded a little too close to the deadline to create a proper ancestor spotlight. Here is a short episode detailing some of the goings on in my life, on the podcast, and on the server. These include a possible upcoming career change, a largely successful migration to YouTube Music, and a server software upgrade to Fedora 40. I close the episode by reading from the On This Day and Upcoming Events block of my Webtrees installation.

Work continues on transcribing the descendants of Johannes Mumma (1763-1829), the first born son of my immigrant ancestor, Peter Mumma (1721–1785). Efforts this month focused on the family of Johannes's grandson, John Mumma (1827-1907). John had 13 children, so my work is cut out for me!

This month I share a little of what I discovered at RootsTech this year, I anticipate the imminent release of the 1950 census, and I remember long-time First Friday Genealogy member and contributor Bill Ivers, who passed away this month at the age of 85. Links are in the show notes.
