While at a genealogy meeting this summer, I met a woman wearing a T-shirt on which a map of the United States was printed. She had added little stars to indicate where her ancestors were from. I want that.
Here's where my stars would be:
Vancouver, WA
Walla Walla, WA
Gillette, WY
Hysham, MT
College Place, WA
Elkton, KY
Sundance, WY
Fergus County, MT
Thedford, NE
Arlington, OR
Bridgewater, MN
Fall Branch, TN
Norfolk, NE
... and a few others.
