Having a son that does php programing for a living makes life easy for a php illiterate like me. Jeremy was at the house when I got home from work on Thursday and he helped me tweak the code on the TNG Genealogy template I was using to integrate it’s look a little closer to my other sites. I had already added new banners at to this page, so, all and all it’s coming together.

I have spent some time today tweaking menus and miscelanious items. I plan to start adding pictures and other documents latter today and through the weekend…

I am learning a lot about the new system. I managed to post a history of the JP Boyd family yesterday. It is just a narative book report edited to read morelike it was written by a person, but I am quite proud of the result.

Look for more in the coming weeks, along with photos and documents as I get time to move them online.

I was also playing around on the new FamilySearch beta site. I found some documentation on the Boyd line out there for Scott and Alvin Boyd…The database is up to date (I think) and I’ll post images as I can. Go giv’em a try…You may discovery the fact you’ve been looking for.

I’ve spent the weekend uploading, tweaking, adding photos, linking photo’s and generally learning to use the new software. The more I use it, the happier I am with The Next Generation of Genealogy Sitebuilding.

After working with WordPress, I find the number of php files needed a bit intemidating. I am sure I’ll figure it out soon.

Oh well, time to call it a night…
