Follow Friday - Favorite Finds

Here are a few of my favorite finds for the past few weeks:

• Heather Kuhn Roelker posted some great tips for using Excel to create ancestor graphics and timelines on her Leaves for Trees blog.
• Fred Siler has a large collection of resources for Queen Anne's County, Maryland on his website. He has resources for many other locations too.
• The timeanddate.com site has interesting date, time, and weather information, including a nice calculator to add or subtract from a date. The calculator is very useful if you have an age in years, months, days from a gravestone and want to calculate a date of birth.
• Jennifer's 'On  a flesh and bone foundation'" An Irish History blog has a thought provoking post called Stepping into the Looking Glass: Reflections of ourselves in our family trees.
• From the geograph site, "The Geograph^® Britain and Ireland project aims to collect geographically representative photographs and information for every square kilometre of Great Britain and Ireland, and you can be part of it.". A search for my Creeden family's homeland in Clondrohid turned up a nice photo of Carrigaphooca Castle in County Cork.
