I’m diving deeper into the rabbit hole by adding my maternal great-grandfather to my A Second Look project. What can I say? I’m a sucker for puzzles, problem solving, and investigating! A journey like this one practically demands it. Whenever I discover something new, I feel like I’ve hit a ridiculously enormous lottery jackpot.
I’ve decided to start with creating a timeline or chronology, as it seems to be most commonly called.

It’s not much, but thoroughly investigating each item should (hopefully) bring me closer to finding the names of his parents (my 2nd great-grandparents).
1910 Federal Census, here I come!
