"You will be tempted to stop and leave the hard work of finding to others who are more expert or to another time in your life. But you will also feel a tug on your heart to go on in the work, hard as it will be." Henry B. Eyring
I am fairly new to Family History. It has not been a life long endeavor to find my family since so much of the work as been done. Now, under the direction of a loving Heavenly Father, I am learning how to find ancestors for myself and others. My experience with this quote from President Eyring is my 5th GG. Thomas Curtis. He is one of many brick walls that our family is hitting in England in the 1700's. However every time I sit down to see what I can do on another line, I keep coming back to Thomas. And I am not alone. He is yelling very loudly that he wants his work done and wants it done now. There is progress and but it is slow, however I do feel the tug on my heart to find him, verify the information, and get the work done for him and his family.
