    I love they way you are doing this for Surname Saturday. I'm very new to blogging (March 2013), and have only been doing my tree since 2010.

    Doing the Surname Saturday this way, the reader gets a much better feel of the people you (the blogger) are talking about.

    I've going back and read all the posts on this family, and have to think about possibly doing my Surname Saturdays in a similar manner, if that's okay with you.
