Thanks so much to Amberly (Genealogy Girl) for including Kin Types in her post today!
I have loved books for as long as I can remember. I probably even loved them before that. When I was a teenager there was a certain book I checked out from the library several times. I loved it so much that I asked my mom if I could say that I “lost it” and pay the lost book fee so I could keep it. I was only joking. Mostly. You see, it was out of print and I really wanted my own copy.
That is definitely not the only time I have longed for an out of print book.
A few years ago I solved a long-standing brick wall using indirect evidence. It was a lot of work. I was nervous to call my conclusion solid. The whole concept of indirect evidence was new to me. I didn’t even know that phrase until well after I had drawn my conclusions.
