Here is the answer to the Question you all have been just dying to know: What is on page 56, sentence 5 of the closest book to me right now. And the answer is:
It's a map - double page spread. Yep, not enough sentences on the page, so I went to page 58. Sentence #5 says "Family historians will need maps of those countries, wherever they may be."

Who is my 1000 person in my family history database? Good question. Hold on, I gotta go check...
It is Patrick William Kennet, husband of a 2nd cousin once removed, Dorothy Lake. I don't really know who he is and I don't have much information about Patrick other than his death date.
Well, wasn't that disappointing.
Hey, I wonder who #500 is.
Oh, this is much more interesting. It is my 7th great-granduncle, Anthony Van Slyke, born 15 December 1706. He is the son of Cornelis Van Slyke and Claartje Janse Bradt. Anthony's sister, Maria Van Slyke (1696 - ?) is my 7th great-grandmother. She was married to Johannes Ryckman (13 April 1705 - ?).

Did you score 46% as well? I took the quiz again, and changed some of my answers. My score was still 46%. Maybe they don't want me to know how badly addicted I am!
Until next time, I hope you have a Fun Friday.
