Several weeks ago I was digging into my family research. I found that my second great grandfather was a fruit dealer, in business with his other family. Another relative, in Waltham, owned a billiard hall. They were Italian immigrants that found a way to make their living in the United States and thrive. My next move will be to take a trip to Waltham to visit the locations of these ancestors residences and businesses. Perhaps, the billiard hall is still in use.
Genealogy can be extremely educational and exciting at the same time. It can also be overwhelming and exhausting. There is an astronomical amount of information available to us, that we can use to learn about our family and our local areas. The key is to pace ourselves and be smart with our time.
