Want to annoy the left? Research your ancestors. Honor your forefathers. Map your lineage.

@HVNYrefugee Simple and beautiful. We need more people in the United States to know their ancestors story. Honor your heritage.

Passing Lookout Mnt., where my great, great, grandfather died in 1862 fighting for the Confederacy

@SusanMcLaughli2 Truly tragic. I remember that night. Conservation and protection of artifacts is of the utmost importance, next to educating our children of their importance.

May 31, 2020 Very sad news to share. Last nights terrorist attack in Richmond claimed a priceless and irreplaceable artifact of Virginia History: General Stonewall Jackson’s flag that has been held in the United Daughters of the Confederacy Headquarters for a very long time. It was incinerated. It’s gone. So too are many irreplaceable manuscripts. From Jason LLoyd's page

Read old books. Honor your ancestors. Restore the great culture they bequeathed you. Study their lives and their great deeds.

Do your duty. Study your heritage.

@BuffaloByGodDan Remember them. Honor your ancestors sacrifices. Join your local SCV.

Remember your ancestors. My 4th Great Grandparents Jim Buchanan (1827 - 1916) Jennie Johnson Buchanan (1825 - 1888) Buchanan Cemetery Clarrisa, North Carolina Jim was a private with the 29th North Carolina Infantry during the War of Northern Aggression. He first saw action at Cumberland Gap in 1862, and was with his regiment until the very end, which for Jim was on April 8, 1865 at the Battle of Spanish Fort in Alabama. Jennie is one of my few genealogical dead ends, at the moment anyway. Jennie’s mother, according to oral tradition, was a woman named Sarah Ledford, but the name is all I have. Nothing is known about her father, other than the fact that he was “a Johnson feller.” Nevertheless, it’s still fun to have a good mystery to chase.

@ChrispyHargrave @Amerisketch My 8th great uncle is buried here Lovely building with rich history!

@Amerisketch My hometown, it’s a special place

@Amerisketch Semper Eadem, indeed

@IMPERATORAUS This is the way. Embrace heritage.

Reject Modernism. Embrace Tradition.

@BBHerodotus Truly one of the most fun aspects of being a dad – plenty of adventures to be had in the history department in the great Commonwealth of Virginia

The best thing about having a little boy is the opportunity to bring them into your historical interests.

@KnightspurHouse Any relation to the Taylor family of the Knights of the Golden Horseshoe?

@fitzresearch Mainly that there was marriage and close bonds with the Ball family. Where our “ home” plantation was,and more on the connection to Governor Sir William Berkeley staying in Guard Point during Bacon’s Rebellion,the home of my 9th Great Grandfather Lawrence Dameron.

Today has been one of those days when you’re researching your ancestors and you hit gold and a wealth of information. Very proud of my Northern Neck of Virginia ancestors. All of them,from Bacon’s rebellion and the Cavalier days,through and after the Revolutionary War. Find your family,they will always amaze you and make you proud.

Old book maxing this fine Saturday in the great Commonwealth of Virginia
