Research Notes : March 16, 2015

Just a few updates on the research front over the last few weeks.  Work commitments and planning a move have kept me busy.

• Found out that Newspapers.com has the online editions of the Alexandria Times-Tribune, where many of my maternal lines are covered, and I've begun searching for information.  Have also located information on some paternal lines as well.  Will post updates soon.

• Sent off to the National Archives for the service records of my maternal grandfather, William Wright, from World War II.  Already have his discharge papers, but hoping there might be more information gleaned about his activities in the Army Air Corp.

• Checked in at 23andMe and found that I had over 60 new DNA Relative matches.  Sent out introductions, but need to get cracking on updating my spreadsheet of matches.
