52 Ancestors:
#27 Walter Watson and Mary Estelle (Simmons) Kinnick
This year, Amy Johnson Crow has issues a new 52 weeks blogging challenge:
52 Ancestors in 52 Weeks
on her No Story Too Small blog.
The challenge: have one blog post each week devoted to a specific ancestor. It could be a story, a biography, a photograph, an outline of a research problem — anything that focuses on one ancestor. Not only should this get me blogging more, but also to take a deeper look at some of the people in my family tree.
My approach: I have made this a Tuesday Theme, and, use it to enhance my WikiTree ancestor profiles. That is, focus on a different ancestor on my WikiTree list of profiles, each week (include possibly adding new profiles), Great idea! Thanks to Randy Seaver's post for bringing this to my attention!
Note: Third shift (not change) to approach. Beginning with #25, I will be doing direct ancestor couples.

#27 Walter Watson and Mary Estelle (Simmons) Kinnick
These are a set of my 2nd great-grandparents, #24 and #25 on my Ahnentafel Report, for my genealogy friends.
Their youngest son, Alonzo Palmer Kinnick, was my great-grandfather, see #5, in this series.
This was written in June 1999 - about the whole family… what fun, great memories:

How nice, FindAGrave is back on line:

Put Walter Watson Kinnick in a Google search… I wrote most of the pages… or the information was from me, posted by others.
What fun! ;-)
Families are Forever! ;-)
