Look what I found the other day! I've been going through old newspapers online, looking for little tidbits about my ancestors lives. I thought this was a wonderful find I wanted to share. These are my great-grandparents. The newspapers from the area my Sparkman and Watson families come from are almost all searchable online.
I found several mentions of these families through out the years, including my dad's birth announcement! My dad was not born in this county so we both thought that was strange. Also, apparently my gg grandfather was on the newspaper's honor roll for paying his subscription dues early - is that still a thing?
Also, I have been working on my Family Trees page. Check it out and let me know what you think. I'm concerned the writing on the trees may be too small to be of use.
