Our Family History

I have been a really poor genealogy blogger. I could blame grad school and general business, such as having three children.

I don’t know who still keeps up with this blog after the dearth of updates, but I felt I should explain myself. First of all, I have been tired of the blog’s look for some time, and I finally found a theme I liked to replace the old one with.  Second, I have returned to [...]

In order to make room for my husband to completely take over PlanetHuff.com, I will be moving this blog to a new domain. My blog will still be available here for one week, after which time I will set up a redirect script. You will now find Our Family History at http://www.huffenglish.com/genealogy/.

I’m sorry if you’ve been trying to access any pages on PlanetHuff.com (including this one) over the last couple of days. Tech support appears to have fixed the problem, but I don’t understand what it was — I thought I spoke Geek pretty well, but I’m obviously not fluent. If you continue to have problems [...]
