I love vacations! I have so many things planned, namely relaxation. Relaxation is at the bottom of the list, this vacation. I am captain of my Relay for Life Team, Too Inspired to Be Tired. I am the ceremonies\/activities\/entertainment chair for the Relay committee. On top of that my day job is a Second grade teacher. Whew! I am tired just typing all of that.<\/p>\n

One of my favorite things to do when I have free time and my thoughts are not centered around lesson plans and students is to research my family tree.<\/p>\n

Last night I logged on to Ancestry.com and started using their “Hints” feature and found some information on a branch of the family tree I have been researching for a while.<\/p>\n

My Great-great grandfather, Gustaf Eliason (1846-1928), had 13 full and half-siblings. Several of his half-siblings settled in Pennsylvania and Massachusetts.

I also found the obituary and death certificates for him, and his son Carl.<\/p>\n

I am excited to see what I find next!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
