I have been looking for a blog carnival or challenge to participate in, as a means of helping resurrect this tired old blog that has been neglected for the past several years. I found it.
Each April comes the A to Z Challenge for genealogy bloggers. Posting a Theme Reveal post is not required; we aren't even required to have a theme. But it helps focus the mind. So my theme for the 2024 A to Z Challenge is:
Professionally Speaking.
In this series of blog entries, I'll talk about the occupations and professions of my ancestors. I have one line stretching all the way back to 1638, so there should be a goodly amount of fodder for this theme in that bunch, my father's line. I haven't got my mother's line back that far yet, but it was a pretty big family, so there should be a selection of occupations and professions to write about. I'm just wondering how I'm going to handle the letters Q, X, and Z!

My goodness, that's awesome! Knowing your ancestors so far back. I wish I would.
I agree that the challenge is a fantastic way to resurrect a blog. It did it for me more than once ;-)

My topic (here: https://gritandgrace2015.blogspot.com/2024/03/atozchallenge-theme-announcement.html ) may not have as much appeal for everyone, but I’m going to give it a try 🙂

Great topic! I had an ancestor who worked in a straw hat factory in Baltimore, which was a gender-neutral fashion thing every summer in the early 1900s. Who knew? Look forward to learning what you discover researching your ancestors' occupations.
Interesting theme. Good luck!

Exciting theme reveal! I'm looking forward to following your A-to-Z journey throughout April. Best of luck with the challenge. I’ve restarted my blog and deleted all the old content since I’ve been away for about 10 years and am coming back with the A-to-Z Challenge, hopefully it’ll give me some blog theme motivation and some dedicated readers. My theme is here: https://illusionsofchaos.blogspot.com/2024/03/hello-again-atozchallenge-theme-reveal.html
I am really looking forward to your April posts
